"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead

We discuss race relations, then work to improve them.

Our Mission

Our tagline says it all: Conversations on Race, Communities In Action.

Since 2008, that’s exactly what we’ve done. We bring people together to talk about and improve race relations in Memphis.

Our organization, which is a program of the YWCA of Greater Memphis, holds two public sessions a year.
