Community Healing Conversation: Finding Shared Humanity Across Identities

The St. Petersburg Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation Center would like to cordially invite you to join us for a Community Healing Conversation on Wednesday, November 19 from 5-7:30 pm at Allendale United Methodist Church for an evening of healing and transformative dialogue! The theme of the discussion is: "Finding Our Shared Humanity Across Identities"

This free gathering is an opportunity to join us in our work toward dismantling the false notion of racial hierarchies in St. Petersburg through narrative change and community building. 

We'll fellowship over a meal and then break into structured, intimate conversations centered on sharing stories (taking us to the heart space) rather than simply relating to an event (the mind space). Participants often see their own experiences in the stories of others, which helps us to see ourselves in one another. Space is limited. Please register today! We look forward to building community with you.

Huge thank you to our partners in this conversation: #RaceWithoutIsm, Tampa Bay Collard Green Festival, and Allendale United Methodist Church

From our meal sponsor:

On behalf of the Tampa Bay Collard Green Festival, Inc., we are honored to join in “Finding Our Shared Humanity Across Identities,” a community conversation hosted by the St. Petersburg Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation Center.

We invite everyone to come break bread together over collard greens (vegan and turkey options) and cornbread, share stories, and reflect on what connects us.

As part of the 45 Days of Excellence, we also welcome you to continue this spirit of unity by joining us for the St. Pete MLK Day Parade on January 19 and the 9th Annual Tampa Bay Collard Green Festival on February 14.

Both events celebrate the heart of our community — fellowship, storytelling, and the shared humanity that binds us all.
