Reparations 101

Join us for Reparations 101, an educational and action-oriented event designed to deepen understanding about the history, policy, and movement for reparations in the United States. This gathering will provide foundational knowledge about the lasting impacts of slavery, segregation, and systemic racism, while exploring what reparations mean in today’s social, economic, and political landscape.

The program will feature a dynamic panel discussion with community leaders, scholars, and policy advocates who will break down the historical context, current legislative efforts, and practical pathways toward reparative justice. Panelists will also share insights on local and national initiatives, including ongoing conversations inspired by proposals such as the Minnesota Great Migration Act.

Following the panel, attendees will participate in interactive breakout sessions designed to foster dialogue, reflection, and action. These smaller group discussions will offer space to ask questions, explore specific topics in depth, and identify ways to engage in advocacy and community-based efforts.

Whether you are new to the conversation or looking to expand your involvement, Reparations 101 offers an accessible starting point and meaningful next step toward understanding and advancing reparative justice.

Come ready to learn, connect, and take action.
