Description:

ACTOR (A Continuing Talk on Race) 

This month A.C.T.O.R. will host a thought-provoking discussion on an important and timely topic: Colorism. This conversation aims to delve into the complexities surrounding perceptions of skin color within our society.

Colorism, defined as discrimination or prejudice based on skin color, is a significant issue affecting individuals globally, influencing societal norms, personal experiences, and opportunities. Together, we hope to explore its impact on different communities, share perspectives, and foster understanding.

Your insights and contributions to this dialogue are invaluable. We look forward to a constructive and enlightening conversation.

A.C.T.O.R. (A Continuing Talk on Race) is a public discussion series. It provides the opportunity for people to come together and speak openly and honestly about issues of race, class and culture. The intent is that each person walks away from the discussion feeling something: challenged, educated, uncomfortable, enlightened, refreshed, reassured and hopefully inspired and moved to action!

On the last Sunday of each month, there is a new topic for discussion
