Race Immersion at the Science Museum
March 9 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Looking for an opportunity to deepen your understanding of race, the history of racism, and the impact systemic racism has on our communities? Join us for an afternoon immersion that challenges and builds awareness as part of our commitment to be the work and break down broken systems.
The idea that we can group people into “races” is only a few hundred years old. It was, and is, tied to power and hierarchy. Today, scientists have disproved the idea of race and its notions of biological superiority. But the idea of race continues to shape our lives. How did we get here? And how can we do better?
In RACE: Are We So Different?, you can examine our shared history and current reality. Understanding the past, acknowledging harm, and joining the conversation are the first steps toward a fairer future. (Science Museum of Minnesota)

Cost: $100/person (includes the price of admission + CLNE facilitators)
When: Saturday March 9th, 2024 | 1:00pm-4:00pm
