More hosts needed for talks on race
The first Neighbor to Neighbor conversations on race will begin next week at locations throughout the Tristate.
The conversations, which aim to get residents talking about what they can do to relieve racial tensions, are sponsored by the Enquirer and many civic and professional groups.
Host response to the Neighbor to Neighbor initiative has been particularly strong in the city and nearby suburbs.
However, more hosts are needed for conversations in the suburbs outside the Interstate 275 beltway. Among the communities with no scheduled conversation so far: Landen/Deerfield Township, Lebanon, Liberty Township, Milford, Monroe, Reading and Union Township in Clermont County.
Conversations last about two hours, with professional facilitators leading. Hosts agree to provide a meeting place suitable for 20 to 25 people, to choose a date and time, and to publicize the event.
If you or your group would like to host a conversation, check Cincinnati.com/neighbors for more information about how to sign up. Call David Hofmeister at 755-4145 if you have questions.
