Program Description

Event Details

Come join a monthly open forum and lively conversation on controversial topics that matter to the community and to you! These monthly conversations are a safe place without judgment to discuss topics that we may often find challenging to openly chat about, or just topics you want to discuss but haven't. Come with an open mind, willingness to listen, and to learn something new. Discussions are interactive, but organized and lead by local Branford resident and attorney Rachel Mirsky.

 

Monthly Topic of Discussion: Are race and white privilege the same?: A conversation about how we can effectively gain insight into these distinct topics.

Below are some suggested articles for the discussion. It is not required to have read them to participate in the group.

What Is White Privilege, Really? | Learning for Justice

Dear white people: Stop confessing to white privilege. Act to change racist systems.

Becoming Trustworthy White Allies | Reflections

To talk about structural racism, we have to talk about white privilege | Urban Institute
