Topic: Empathy, Equity and Diversity—from a lens of Hate and Discrimination

September 29, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

FREE

This session will use the message of P.E.A.C.E. (People Everywhere Actually Coexisting Equally) as a springboard for conversation. The reality is that not everyone wants P.E.A.C.E. nor sees the need for us to interact and communicate in harmony. So many ancestors and leaders have tried to champion this ever important topic only to be greeted with hatred, anger and discrimination. During this session participants will be challenged to:
• Acknowledge their own biases
• Be open to uncomfortable conversations
• Share their feelings and experiences honestly
• Set goals for breaking negative patterns in their lives
• Express their emotions in a creative format
• Become more empathetic
