Our society is experiencing rapid social changes and we are seeing disturbing displays of racism and hate that indicate significant issues need to be addressed in our community.  We will explore and learn about complex issues and start the conversation to find solutions and create change. We will learn the meaning and impact of being "Anti-Racist," which means transforming thoughts and words into meaningful activities.

We invite you to join us and make Shoreline a Welcoming Place for All.
