[Belonging Chat: 4pmSLT You Said/Did The 'Wrong' Thing. Now What?]

We had one person, come...which was one more than expected for the first week. It was a really great opportunity to share thoughts and ideas about the differences between how race is viewed and talked about in the UK vs USA. Here's to next week!

[Belonging Chat: 4pmSLT You Said/Did The 'Wrong' Thing. Now What?]

Have you ever said something to/about a person of another race or ethnicity that got you 'in trouble'? Are you worried about doing so? The truth is we've *all* been there, regardless of identity or social circumstances. The real question is what do we do *when* we get it 'wrong'? I'll also share nine steps I've found helpful in navigating conversations around race that have gotten confrontational...or even just complicated. Come share and listen, without judging or being judged. In voice and text. Take the tp to the skybox!

[Small, empty spot on your land for tier and a good cause?]

I promise it's for a good cause. I'd like to hold some conversations, helping people to learn to talk about race across racial lines. And I'm looking for a small space to set up some chairs and maybe a little room of some kind, in which to hold them. I'm happy to donate tier, if that would be useful.
