He is co-founder of Beyond Separation, which offers classes and workshops that inspire white people to see the social and spiritual harm done to all of us by racism. In his writing, Gregory examines the way unquestioned cultural stories and implicit beliefs limit our thinking and interfere with our ability to connect across difference.
