It's Time to Talk Forums on Race

Our Annual Luncheon Event

Modeled after the successful series of the Urban Enterprise Center in Seattle, It's Time to Talk: Forums on Race exists to expand understanding through personal dialogue among members of different races, with the ultimate goal of making a commitment to diversity and improving race relations in our state. This action to eliminate racism starts with It's Time to Talk and continues through community dialogues where diverse groups gather to talk about issues of race and share personal stories and life experiences.

Since 2003, influential leaders have invited thousands of people of racially diverse backgrounds to It's Time to Talk. Many of them have followed up by engaging people in Community Dialogues in their workplaces, communities, homes, and places of worship. Their positive feedback emphasizes that taking time to talk about racism is an important step towards improving race relations in Minnesota. Their continued commitment proves that talk is action.
