It's Time to Talk: Forums on Race

Presented by Akron Urban League at Unknown, Akron OH

Mar 28 2018
It's Time to Talk: Forums on Race

How do we begin to address our unconscious biases? That is the question the Akron Urban League, Temple Israel, and the YWCA of Greater Cleveland have partnered to try and begin to answer. We talk…. and we talk until we find solutions. No magic wand, but people talking to people who don’t look like them, speak like them, think or worship like them.

The Akron Urban League and Temple Israel of Akron would like to invite you to join us at our First Annual It’s Time to Talk: Forums on Race Luncheon with Keynote Speaker, Dr. Jerry Sue Thornton.

We expect over 350 diverse leaders from business, education, arts and community service will come together to move Akron and Summit County forward through honest conversation about race.

Our goals are to:

1. Educate the community about facets of racism, equity and inclusion
2. Engage stakeholders in dialogue, discussion and self-reflection
3. Empower our community to lead sustainable change
