What is Messy Conversations?

The following description was taken from https://sites.google.com/antioch.edu/messyconversations :

Messy Conversations, led by faculty members and students at Antioch University, offers participatory conversations focusing on anti-racism and racial justice. Join us on Monday afternoons from 4:00-5:00 PM PST / 7:00-8:00 PM EST on Zoom to witness and join these open conversations. Our conversations are intimate, collaborative, critical, and attempt to find a way to move forward by engaging multiple perspectives on topics related to anti-racism. Conversations are facilitated by Antioch faculty, students, and alum and feature the voices of individuals who are actively working toward racial justice in the Antioch community and beyond. 

Additional resources, guest bios and recordings of previous Messy Conversations can be found on our website here:

“Perkins is a favorite amongst students and faculty alike. She is hardworking, honest, and brings to her work a passion that encourages all she encounters. Additionally, she speaks their language. I have often marveled at how easily she adapts her communication to her audiences no matter their backgrounds, interests, or mission. She often states, “Communication is everything and everything is communication.”
