About the Event
Diverse citizens and leaders from business, education, and community service come together to move Greater Mankato forward through honest conversation about race. Last year, over 500 attendees joined us to learn from a keynote speaker, and participate in round table discussions with local racial justice facilitators.
- Educates about facets of racism, equity and inclusion
- Engages in dialogue, discussion and self-reflection
- Empowers communities to lead sustainable change
We hope you will join us to continue the strength of It's Time to Talk™. We believe the strength of our future depends on our ability to develop new skills around inclusion and equity, understand the realities of racism today, and commit ourselves to action.
