Asked at last week’s wonderful panel discussion: “How can we make a conversation feel more open to those who feel unwelcome to the conversation?” Terrific discussion followed, with some particularly courageous and challenging comments. Do you feel unwelcome in the conversation on racism at New Paltz? Do you know others who do? Come, listen and be heard…

Conversation One
Wednesday, Feb 13, @ 4:30 PM [Late arrivals/early departures are welcome!]

EVERYONE is welcome to join in the Conversation: staff/faculty, students, community members. Any religion, or no religion, any political affiliation, or none.  No special expertise needed.

Come prepared to listen generously and with a willingness to learn.  Our goal is to speak from our lived experience, and to be mindful of the feelings of others.  More detail in our Mission and Values.

“Today’s Topic” is just a suggestion.  You are always welcome to bring whatever is challenging, or hurting, or encouraging you in your life.
