Let's Talk Race: Building Bridges Through Conversation

Mar 27, 2025, 6 PM

Join us for an interactive community conversation series!

Hello friends, we are delighted to invite you to participate in a thought-provoking and insightful conversation on race. Join us for a 2-part session, using the "Let's Talk Race" Conversation Cards. This is a card deck created by BIPOC Vermonters as a tool to prompt discussion about racism, class and privilege, and shifting power. The tool is designed for people of all races, genders, socio-economic classes, ages, abilities, and more. The overall goal is to grow our communities' ability and skill to have conversations about race, by providing a tool to expand mutual understanding, empathy, and communication.

There will be two 2-part workshop series, one series in Montpelier and one series in Marshfield. Each workshop series will be two 1.5-hour sessions.

What: Montpelier Let's Talk Race conversations (2 meetings)
When: Thu March 20 and Thu March 27, 6:00 - 7:30pm
Where: Kellogg-Hubbard Library
Who: facilitated by Kim Beyer, Anne Miller, and Shaun Stephens

What: Marshfield Let's Talk Race conversations (2 meetings)
When: Fri April 4 and Fri April 11, 6:30 - 8:00pm
Where: Jaquith Library, Marshfield
Who: facilitated by Kathy Johnson and Shalini Suryanarayana

Other details:
By donation: donated funds will be given to local BIPOC individuals or organizations, nobody turned away for lack of funds.
The cards are free to use during the sessions; we will give away 2 decks.
The preference is for participants to attend both sessions, but nobody would be turned away if they could only attend one.

Warm greetings,
Central VT SURJ
