About this event
4-Part Weekly Series
Mondays - July 13 -through- August 3, 2020
7:00pm - 9:00pm
Location: Zoom virtual platform
Race and Racism are issues most of us would like to understand more but may not know where to begin. This 4-part weekly series will shed light on historical and social context leading to our current racial situation. We will look at how we got here; what disconnects and unites us; and most importantly, how we can be part of a more racially equitable solution.
Race Together is an engaging and informative series facilitated by a dynamic team of presenters. Sessions will include media screenings, guided discussions, moments of reflection, impactful activities and resources all in the environment of sharing and discovery. Our virtual sessions are in real-time and allow participants to get to know each other and the facilitators as we embark on this journey together. Mark your calendar for all 4 meetings as each session varies in content and progressively builds on information as we go. This content is geared to English speaking participants ages 14 years and older.
Monday, July 13 / Monday, July 20 / Monday, July 27 / Monday, August 3
