Bridge4Unity in Springfield

Dialogues Across Race:
South Carolina, Massachusetts, Kentucky

Saturday June 29, 2019

4:00 – 6:00 pm

UMass Center – Springfield

Tower Square, 2nd Floor – 1500 Main Street, Springfield

Free and Open to the Public

In the Fall of 2018 people of African, Indigenous and European descent in the Pioneer Valley began a dialogue on racism and white privilege. In January 2019 eighteen of us traveled to South Carolina for a weekend of dialogue and cultural exchange with similar groups from South Carolina and Kentucky. These groups are gathering again in Western Massachusetts at the end of June to continue the dialogue. Join us as we talk about the successes and challenges of inter-racial dialogue, and reflect together on how dialogue could be useful in the Springfield area.
