Thank you for attending the "Pain and Peace" screening.
Below are some resources and learning opportunities you heard about at the screening.
Racial Healing Circles
The Roundtable introduced Racial Healing Circles (RHC) into the WNY area via an inter-congregational strategy to provide an opportunity for people of different backgrounds to proactively come together in a circle to discuss race and race-related issues. People who engage in Racial Healing Circles are ready to experience the circle process with a focus on racial healing and are interested in learning how to bring racial conversations to their communities.
