The Second Tuesday Race Forum is a place to learn about Race in our lives through monthly conversations about Race. Look at the pictures from our meetings and have a look around the site; at About Us, at the Blog and the Resources Pages.
We are always open to new members. Go to our Contact page to see how you can join us by trying out a meeting or by signing up for our email list.
Talking about Race can be a scary thing. We can't promise you will always be comfortable, but we can say that you will be safe from harm. You can get some reassurance for your first visit by visiting our Guidelines for Effective Community Engagement Page
Second Tuesday Race Forum by donnie betts -- for the History Colorado Center
The video below was made by donnie betts in 2014, to show in the exhibit on Race at the History Colorado Center. It is an 11 minute condensation of a one hour meeting. It has some great lessons, and will help give you an idea of what our meetings are like.
Turbulence Before Takeoff: The Life & Times of Aviation Pioneer Marlon DeWitt Green - History Colorado Center
Last Thursday evening Douglas Blackmon, a white man from the South, gave a talk at The Tivoli on the Auraria Campus about his book, "Slavery by Another name". I am writing today to share my recounting of that evening, and a commentary by Norma Johnson, that she wrote after reading my report. We want to share these with you because it was a powerful event with over 300 people attending, and we want to recommend Douglas Blackmon to you (on the internet), his book especially to you, and the continuing Community Conversations series being produced by Facing History and Ourselves.
