Latino or of Spanish Origin: A person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race. This is not a race-it’s (Ethnicity). This Dialogue Room concept is what makes The People’s Gathering unique. It creates a structured and supportive environment for participants to explore and discuss their racial experiences, perspectives, and challenges. We form conversation groups around specific racial categories to deepen understanding, foster empathy, and build strategies for collective action toward racial equity. We are guided by the mantra – “put your oxygen mask on first – before you can help others.” Each room will be led by an experienced facilitator(s) who also “check the box” for that particular room and will guide conversations, encourage participation, and ensure a respectful and productive environment.
