B2B Annual Critical Discussion on Race and Culture: A Long Talk!

Noon to 2:00 PM | JSSB, CAVEA 420

The Brother-to-Brother Annual Critical Discussion on Race is dedicated to fostering meaningful conversations about racial issues and equity. This year’s event proudly presents A Long Talk About The Uncomfortable Truth as our distinguished guest.

Why People need to talk

• Problem: Many institutions, communities, and familes see an urgent need for change, but aren’t sure where to start, or are apprehensive about engaging in a process that could be uncomfortable.
• Solution: A long Talk is a practiced and proven framework that:
  • Educates
  • ‘Breaks the ice’ of difficult conversations
  • Changes perception of participants from passive to active
  • Allows people to learn from one another and feel more connected

…in a setting that is supportive and facilitated so participants of all backgrounds feel comfortable taking part.
