The Equity, Diversity, and Inclusivity Committee of LLL of Maine and New Hampshire will  facilitate and hold space for open and honest dialogues every other month. We will start by independently reading the children’s book, Anti-Racist Baby, by Ibram X Kendi in the month of February. Then on March 9, from 7:30-8:30 p.m., we will discuss the questions that Kendi has posed at the end of the book. As a bonus, this is a wonderful book to share with your children (it even comes as a board book!) to begin an honest dialogue that will help equip our children to participate in a changing, more diverse, and inclusive society.

If you would like support in acquiring this book, please let us know as we have set aside money for scholarships. Subsequent dialogues focused on other EDI topics will occur on the second Wednesday of every other month (May 11, July 13, September 14, November 9) from 7:30-8:30 p.m. through Zoom. Topics and resources will be announced the month prior to the conversation. We are looking forward to sharing these conversations with you!

Our EDI Conversations will take place on Zoom every other month on the second Wednesday from 7:30-8:30 p.m.
