Community Conversations: Talking Together When Race & Ethnicity Pull us Apart
- Co-hosted with the University of Arkansas at Little Rock Center for Public Collaboration, Just Communities of Arkansas and the Little Rock Racial and Cultural Diversity Commission
Do you ever want to have a thoughtful conversation about race and ethnicity, but don't know how to begin? "Community Conversations" is the perfect opportunity to explore some of the most difficult issues in America today. Facilitated conversations will provide a safe place to explore what we think about race and ethnicity, how those things affect us daily, and about how we might create a culture in Arkansas where a person’s race or ethnicity does not limit their ability to live, work, raise their family and make a positive contribution to the greater community.
This is your opportunity to be heard and to hear others as we grapple with the complexities of race and ethnicity in Arkansas and across the country. Join us for one of three community conversations. Please indicate which of the following you plan to attend.
- Tuesday October 5, 2010 at 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. (UALR Bailey Alumni Center, 28th Street across from Stephens Center) *Free parking available at Stephens Center.
- Tuesday October 19, 2010 at 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. (Willie L. Hinton Neighborhood Resource Center, 3805 W. 12th Street) *Free parking adjacent to the site.
- Tuesday October 26, 2010 at 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. (Clinton School, 1200 President Clinton Avenue) Free parking on site.
