Coming in Early 2024
When looking at the difficult parts of being together, it's not about guilt or shame. It's about having real conversations and learning from our past and from each other so we can thoughtfully shape our future - together.
Welcome to the new traveling series where Jen Lumanlan brings together voices from local communities so we can all learn from each other. Because Culture TALKS... past, present & future.

Many thanks to our panelists, volunteers, organizers, and all of you who joined us in person for our very first Culture TALKS event in Vancouver last September 16th!
We continue to be on the road, also see Culture TALKS Seattle (took place this past Oct. 11), but are working on pulling together replays that captured the illuminating conversations to share by end of the year!

Event Details
Building Relationships; Building Our Future
It can seem like social forces like White supremacy, patriarchy, and capitalism are 'out there' in the world and that they're so big there's nothing we can really do about them.
But these systems are created and perpetuated in our daily interactions with those around us, at all levels of scale: in our relationships with our children, with the children we teach, with the other parents at the playground, and with the people who live, work, and play in the city around us (and we have panelists working at all of those levels!).
In this fun, interactive panel event you'll learn and discuss with the panelists:
- How to see the impacts of big social forces in your every day relationships
- Ways to live your social justice values in those relationships
- How to be in mutually beneficial relationships with people who have different privilege from you
You'll leave the event with:
- A deeper understanding of how you and your family have been impacted by White supremacy, patriarchy, and capitalism
- A sense of hope that things can be different, and you can be a part of making it happen
- Concrete strategies you can use in your relationships to create a sense of belonging and community
Several panelists are book authors and have a variety of offerings to support this mission. Please come to the event ready to support them with (tax deductible!) donations and purchases - they make ideal holiday gifts for yourself, your family members, and others who share your values.
Childcare is available!
Pacific Immigrant Resources Society will provide childcare; 20 USD donation per child for the whole event. Sign up when you register for event tickets.
Suggested donation:
10-20 USD. Nobody turned away. If you can afford to donate more, this will enable us to support others.
Tickets will provide a panelist / moderator honorarium. Any overage will be evenly split between panelists and childcare providers, in recognition of the systemic under-valuing of caregiving work.
