WHAT IS INTERGROUP DIALOGUE ABOUT?
Intergroup dialogues are facilitated small group experiences that bring students from different racial, ethnic, gender and sexual orientation to explore their commonalities and differences; examine the nature and impact of social inequalities; and explore ways of working together toward greater equality and justice. Intergroup dialogues strive to promote sharing of personal experiences, meaningful conversation, and critical examination of difficult issues, as well as a mutual understanding and cooperative action across differences.
SPRING 2009 Series - Getting Real About Race
This five part series, offered through the Intergroup Dialogue Program and facilitated by Venus Ricks, will be presented beginning March 24, 2009 as an opportunity to discuss race and its intersections in different parts of life. The Smith community is invited to attend one, several or all of these programs, as a drop-in opportunity. Please note that attendees are expected to be present for the entire workshop.
