_SPACE TO TALK ABOUT RACE
Sunday, February 25, 2018
10:30am - 3:00pm
at the Museum of Tolerance
Join
us in a community dialogue to promote understanding and
racial justice. Participants will be guided by an experienced

perspectives, and find new ways forward. This free program includes
guided exhibit exploration, group activities, dialogue circle,
and arts-based reflection.
“I learned about others experiences and saw how a lot of problems are very connected. It forced me to critically reflect upon my own experiences and beliefs.” ― Oct. 15th Dialogue
In 2014 following the unrest in Ferguson, MO, the International
Coalition of Sites of Conscience launched a national initiative for museums
to host dialogues on race, education, incarceration, and civil rights in their
communities. The need for dialogue and
change continues as we witness incidents of hate online and in our streets. As
a member of this network, the Museum of Tolerance is committed
to providing opportunities for courageous conversations to
promote dialogue, learning, responsibility, and healing. There
are many kinds of dialogue experiences. This one is a solutions-oriented space
where dialogue encourages taking action.
Agenda:
- 10:30am - Welcome
- Exhibit Tour of "We the People"
- Pizza/Salad Lunch (included)
- Facilitated Dialogue: Mindfulness, agreements, gallery walk, dialogue circle, commitments and gratitude
- Arts based workshop: Reflection and envisioning
- Spoken word workshop: Express yourself!
This program is led by professional dialogue facilitator Lloyd Wilkey, partner in Diverse City Consulting and Founder and Head Coach of Keep It Real Boxing Clubs.
Unlike other events, this is not a
'drop in' program.
