The Minnesota Peacebuilding Leadership Institute is pleased to announce that racial dialogue expert Dr. David Campt will be coming to Minneapolis, March 7 – 9, 2019 to teach his half-day White Ally Toolkit training to help us build peace within our spheres of influence here in Minnesota. Since research indicates that 55% of white people do not believe racism is a serious problem for people of color, Dr. David Campt has developed the White Ally Toolkit training to teach allies how to foster constructive debiasing dialogues with the racism skeptics within their spheres of influence. In December 2018, Dr. Campt was featured on the Daily Show with Trevor Noah at the “White People’s Whisperer.”

There will be three separate events while Dr. Campt is in the Twin Cities. The public is welcome to join us at whichever and however many events capture one’s interest.  Information for all three events can be found at http://www.mnpeace.org/events.html
