justice past stalemate and towards one that's more productive."  
Presenters Kai Wright, Editorial Director of Colorlines.com, and Terry 
Keleher, Director of ARC's Racial Justice Leadership Action Network will 
use examples from the award-winning Colorlines.com on framing sensitive 
topics.

In this interactive training, you'll get practical tools to:

  * Talk effectively about racism
  * Keep conversations constructive and productive
  * Move from conversation towards actions and solutions
