In response to the increased awareness of the injustices and inequalities centered around race, from the killing of George Floyd to the recent wave of protests across the country, Active Bethel Citizens plan to have a series of facilitated open and respectful conversations to help us grow as a community. The meetings will take place over ZOOM. We recognize that our membership is predominantly white and that there is a need for white community members to educate themselves about race issues before engaging with people of color. The intention is to learn about ourselves as a community and build deeper bonds with our neighbors, especially our neighbors who are Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC).
