BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) Voices is a discussion group intended to encourage an understanding of systemic racism, privilege, and biases to help disrupt racial inequalities and racism. Together the group will foster knowledge, empathy and understanding of the experiences, identities and history of people in the BIPOC community. We will explore titles, including books and films, through an anti-racism lens to allow for open and honest conversations in a safe, respectful environment.
