Living Room Conversations: "Seeing and Living as White," pt 2

Heathmere, in partnership with Beverly Human Rights Committee, the Beverly Public Library, and the City of Beverly, will offer a 3 part Living Room Conversations series, “Seeing and Living as White.” This series will use facilitated dialogue to help white North Shore residents explore their own racial assumptions and experiences and consider how these impact their racial healing and justice work. The aim of these sessions is threefold:

  • to reflect in a supportive and brave environment on what it means to be white

  • to learn curious listening and dialogue skills

  • to build community connections that support on-going racial justice healing work

Each session will be begin with a 10-15 minute interactive learning exercise. The rest of the time will be spent in small, facilitated dialogue groups where residents will have the chance to practice deep reflection and curious listening.

Free and open to all!
