The A.C.T.O.R. (A Continuing Talk on Race) open discussion series is hosted by Busboys and Poets as a community service. It provides the opportunity for people to come together and speak openly and honestly about issues of race. 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! Each month there is a new topic for discussion.
This month's topic:
We will discuss reparations from all angles as part of Black History Month. What are some feasible ways we can implement a reparative response to chattel slavery? What are some obstacles to passing legislation to begin reparations? What are the economics behind a reparations program? What is the most compelling arguments for/against reparations?
Free and open to all.
A.C.T.O.R. is held on the first Sunday of every month at Busboys and Poets 14th & V from 5:00PM-7:00pm.
