Coming Up: Racial Equity Learning Opportunities

February 23, 2021

Last fall the Foundation was pleased to support an assortment of nonprofit projects focused on addressing racial equity within our organizations and our community. Lots of reflecting, learning and sharing has begun as we all move forward in this journey to dismantle systemic racism.

Three of the many excellent learning opportunities that emerged from those mini-grants are coming up this week. We hope you’ll check them out and participate if you can.

1) Community Conversations: Actions Speak Louder than Words
Feb. 25, 7 pm to 8:30 pm

 

A facilitated discussion about the book Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You by Jason Reynolds and Ibram X. Kendi. The book was adapted from Kendi’s award-winning book, Stamped from the Beginning, to make the topic more accessible and informative for young adults. Joe Corrazini, Framingham Public Schools (FPS) assistant superintendent for equity, diversity and community, and Taylor Collins, FPS history teacher, will lead the discussion. You need not have read the book to participate.

Co-Hosts: MetroWest Nonprofit Network, Leadership MetroWest

2) Framingham’s People of Color 1600-1800
Feb. 25, 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm
 
Presentation by Framingham History Center’s Scholar-in-Residence Mary McNeil, Ph.D., on her findings to date from the Center’s archives.
Host: Framingham History Center (FHC)

3) “I’m Not Racist, Am I?”
Feb. 27- March 1 Film Screenings
Mar. 3 – Panel Discussion
Mar 4, 5, 6 – Small Group Discussions
 
The film follows a diverse group of teens and their families through a yearlong exploration of race and racism, and will serve as a springboard for conversation through a virtual panel discussion and small group discussions. The goal is to provide Lincoln, Sudbury, and Boston METCO families with a forum for working together on local race-related issues.
Co-Hosts: Lincoln METCO Coordinating Committee, Sudbury for Racial and Social Justice

Our thanks to all of the host organizations for bringing these learning opportunities to our community.
