Discussion

It can be hard enough to talk to adults about race, prejudice, and justice--how do you talk about it with young kids? Equal parts discussion and practice session, this workshop will empower adults with the skills they need to discuss race, racism and fairness with the children in their lives. Participants will also receive four follow up emails to check in about their practice and provide ongoing support.

Childcare available.

Cost is on sliding scale. If ticket price listed on Facebook is too high, please click through to Eventbrite link.

Part 4 of a 4-part series on Elections.

2018 is an election year - a primary in August and a general election in November. Does the press inform you about the candidates? Or does the press persuade you?

In 2018 Black Futures Lab will be connecting with more than 200,000 people of African descent in an effort to provide community members with the chance to share personal stories! We will be leading group discussions and the information gathered from the survey to help create an accurate narrative of our collective experiences. Sign up to attend a session today!

Since announcing my candidacy for State Representative, I've knocked on thousands of doors across our district and had hundreds of conversations on doorsteps, at meet and greets, and at events throughout our community.

To learn more about what is important to the voters in the 69th District, I distributed lengthy surveys to voters and received hundreds of responses back. Reading over these has been a very informative experience.

What is the State of Our Black City? What role should Detroit play as a national model for black culture, investment, development, and thought?

Join us in the parlor for a special talk by Chase L. Cantrell, founder of Building Community Value and host of the Urban Consulate in Detroit since 2016.

What does Detroit lose when we prioritize cars over people?

Detroit has a problem: The combination of numerous surface parking lots, and insufficient transportation alternatives, has created a downtown full of holes and gaps that undermine the walkability and density the city needs to compete globally.

Join us in the parlor with urbanist and public policymaker Francis Grunow for a conversation about the REAL costs of parking.
