I learned about others experiences and saw how a lot of problems are very connected. It forced me to critically reflect upon my own experiences and beliefs. Participant in Oct. 15th Dialogue
In 2014 following the unrest in Ferguson, MO, the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience launched a national initiative for museums to host dialogues on race, education, incarceration, and civil rights in their communities. The need for dialogue and change continues as we witness incidents of hate online and in our streets. As a member of this network, the Museum of Tolerance is committed to providing opportunities for courageous conversations to promote dialogue, learning, responsibility, and healing. There are many kinds of dialogue experiences. This one is a solutions-oriented space where dialogue encourages taking action.
Agenda:
- 11:00- Welcome
- Exhibit Tour of "We the People"
- Pizza/Salad Lunch (included)
- Facilitated Dialogue: Mindfulness, agreements, gallery walk, dialogue circle, commitments and gratitude
