Dear Community Member,
We are excited to invite you to our second Healing Conversation virtual discussion on Thursday, October 22nd from 7PM - 8:30PM. Healing Conversations are a monthly series that invites members of the community to engage with informed guest speakers and others on 7 different topics impacting our society today and how they relate to Moral Injury. Each discussion features a different topic.
This month's Healing Conversation topic will focus on Systemic Racism. Speakers and participants will have the opportunity to engage with the following questions:
- Have anti-discrimination laws been a deterrent to the increase of systematic racism? Why or why not?
- What are the residual effects of systemic racism?
- If you were trying to convince someone of the effects of systemic racism, what examples would you point to and why?
- How have you experienced systemic racism?
- In your view, how could systemic racism begin to be eradicated?
- What steps can we take?
- How do we make lasting actions combating systemic racism?
