WE NEED TO TALK

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2023
NOON​ - 1:00 PM


PRESENTED BY JULIA ROUNDTREE LIVINGSTON & JOHN KIM, JD
HOSTED BY THE DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, EQUITY, AND ACCESSIBILITY (DEIA) COMMITTEE

THIS IS AN IN-PERSON EVENT ONLY
​
​
[1 HOUR PR DIVERSITY & INCLUSION CLE APPROVed]

Please join the McLean County Bar Association in welcoming Julia Roundtree Livingston and John Kim, JD. Since 2020, the murder of George Floyd has prompt people to have difficult conversations regarding race. However, little constructive guidance was given regarding how to have these conversations. As a result, although some people engaged in these conversations and were catalysts for change, other people had conversations which may have done more harm than good, and other people simply tried to avoid having these conversations at all. ​

The reality is that many people struggle with having honest and productive conversations about diversity. These conversations require people to discuss potentially sensitive topics … to speak and listen with empathy … to be open to accepting constructive criticism … to be willing to ask questions with an open mind … and to risk potentially saying the wrong thing. As a result, some people try to avoid ever having these conversations.  ​

This course explores how professionalism and civility can provide you with skills to facilitate difficult conversations regarding diversity and help you to be leaders in creating more inclusive environments.
 
This program will be held on Tuesday, October 17, 2023 beginning at 12:00 p.m. at Second Presbyterian Church, Bloomington. Lunch will be served.
