The mission of Conway Conversations is to provide a space for members of the University of Central Arkansas (UCA) campus and communities around Conway, AR, to come together and engage in conversation about social issues affecting diverse groups of community members. All members of the UCA campus and Conway communities are invited to join us to listen and share with one another. In all of our events, Conway Conversations welcomes a diversity of views and perspectives in the spirit of dialogue across differences. ABOUT THE NATIONAL DAY OF RACIAL HEALING: The National Day of Racial Healing is a time to contemplate our shared values and create the blueprint together for #HowWeHeal from the effects of racism. Launched on Jan. 17, 2017, it is an opportunity to bring ALL people together in their common humanity and inspire collective action to create a more just and equitable world. This annual observance is hosted by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation (WKKF) and was created with and builds on the work and learnings of the Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation (TRHT) community partners. Fundamental to this day is a clear understanding that racial healing is at the core of racial equity. This day is observed every year on the Tuesday following Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
