Nationwide, communities are galvanizing and demanding institutions to address racism. In this spirit, the Cincinnati Human Relations Commission and Intercommunity Justice and Peace Center are partnering to challenge organizations and individuals to make a commitment to addressing and ending racism, with an initiative entitled, "Rethinking Racism." The kick off event for this collaborative will be an open space dialogue and workshop taking place Thursday, January 14, 2016, 6:30-8:30pm at Father Rivers Hall, St. Joseph Parish, 745 Ezzard Charles Drive, Cincinnati, OH 45202. Attendees will have the opportunity to address their perceptions of modern day racism and participate in action based strategizing. GAPP is sponsoring this event.
