On Monthly Virtual Talks On Healing From, Or Engaging With Racism

Join the Middletown Racial Justice Coalition, along with the Courageous Conversations Global Foundation, in monthly virtual talks on healing from, or engaging with racism.

In this series, we will engage in honest and REAL talks about what healing from racial trauma looks like as BIPOC (Black, Brown, Indigenous, People of Color- Includes Asian) & what it means to fully engage in Antiblack-racism work as White people. Next, as a community, we will come together and begin the work of undoing Anti-Black racism in Middletown.
