Welcome Roseville residents! This series for Roseville adults provides an opportunity to meet other people living or working in Roseville and to discuss the local racial environment. The series gives everyone the space to build trust and relationships with diverse people in their local community.
Conversations on Racial Healing is a free multi-week series of weekly meetings to discuss racism and to share our thoughts and experiences about racial bias. Thus, everyone can become more aware of our racial conditioning and can improve relations within our community. We like to invite a variety of people to join the series, since we have found that there is more credibility and understanding when people from different backgrounds and experiences participate.
Explore your own experiences and learn about the experiences of others in a supportive, non-confrontational environment. Unlearn the out-of-date stereotypes that still affect our words and behavior so that we can all share the richness of the diversity in our community. Series goals:
· To educate the mind with new facts and research about types of racism
· To examine life experiences and share from your heart
· To build relationships with other groups so we can support each other’s efforts to accept others without prejudice
Let’s build relationships with our neighbors and other groups, so that we can enhance the vibrancy of our community!
Each meeting of the series is designed to provide information on a topic related to race relations and to offer a safe place to voluntarily share your experiences regarding racism. The first part is information for the mind, then we share from the heart. For a list of series topics, click here:

The Roseville series runs on Tuesdays, September 20 to November 15, 2022, at the Library at Buljan Middle School. Participants are encouraged to attend all meetings since later meetings build on earlier ones. Please sign up for the first date and we hope you can join us for all. After you register for the series, we will contact you by email with further information.
