Let's Start a Conversation



Today I was reading a blog that I follow called RaceWire, and its post, "Start a Conversation to Say No to Racial Profiling" caught my attention. With the struggle that bodies within the WU community have had with sustaining attention and concern with the racial profiling issue, it intrigued me that the organization and its partner, Night of 1000 Conversations, could do so with such ease in multiple cities.

I wanted to share this because as Missouri does not have a "Conversation" currently registered,  I think it would be great if conversations about various issues could be sparked with the toolkits and service that these organizations provide. What will we converse about as WashU students? What social causes and issues peak our interest at this current time? This is something to think about, and if you desire to spark a convo with your peers and groups, try using Night of 1000 Conversations as a resource.

Here's the video that they posted on RaceWire.*



*Please note that conversations do not have to be about race...

Peace
