Coming to the Table | Rochester Public Library

Coming to the table encourages and supports the establishment of local groups to provide spaces and opportunities for people to meet regularly together, in our communities, for truth-telling, deep dialogue, building relationships, healing, and taking action to dismantle inequitable systems and structures based on “race”. Discussion topics for meetings will be determined by group at the end of each meeting for the upcoming meeting. Discussions can include a wide range of topics, for example systemic racism, media bias, intersectionality, etc.

Coming to the table is hosted by the Rochester Public Library in partnership with Rochester Area Foundation, the City of Rochester, and Olmsted County.
