In honor of MLK Day and the National Day of Racial Healing, join us for two story circles as tellers share tales of reckonings, reflections, and reconciliations on Tuesday, January 21 at 12:00 pm and 2:00 pm CT.

Racism infects all our lives and the stories we tell — or don’t — literally create our world. We must write new stories and share our truths with each other if we hope to build trust and develop authentic relationships. These circles will hopefully inspire more stories — and conversations — and encourage us to listen and learn from one another as we forge a future of equity and justice for all people.

Begun in 2017, The National Day of Racial Healing builds upon the W.K. Kellogg Foundation’s long-standing commitment to racial equity and grew out of the Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation (TRHT) initiative — a comprehensive community-driven effort to bring about transformational and sustainable change while addressing the historic and contemporary effects of racism.

RSVP today at bit.ly/MG-NDRH to join us on Tuesday, January 21 at 12 pm and 2:00 pm CT for these inspiring and transformative stories.

Colleges and universities are currently confronting growing movements to dismantle programs and curriculums that include diversity, equity and inclusion language. The Chronicle of Higher Education DEI tracker has tracked changes dismantling DEI efforts at 215 campuses in 32 states. We want to join in community and healing circles to explore how we can and should respond to these threats.

This circle will help participants navigate emotions tied to the challenges and transitions we face in the coming year—whether those feelings are of hope, fear, or uncertainty—and offer tools for moving forward. It’s a space to explore how this moment intersects with personal values, community challenges, and hopes for the future.

Through facilitated conversation, embodiment and mindfulness practices, participants can begin to generate connections to heal the wounds of racial trauma. A healing circle offers a chance to be authentic and vulnerable and take collective action for change.
