Supported by a grant from the East Tennessee Foundation,“Conversations that Matter” is a monthly series produced by the McKinney Centerin Jonesborough, Tennessee. In each “Conversation” two local guests fromdifferent backgrounds (age, race, religion, culture, etc.) explore their ownculture and perspective, and talk to each other about what makes them unique,discover their similarities, and explore their differences. They will look atwhere their lives might intersect personally and in the community. The goal ofeach “Conversation that Matters” is for guests and participants to hear realstories, from real neighbors. This month will feature personal experiencesalong with real history questions about local Black History and Black Historythroughout American history.
This monthly series is inspired by the Diversity &Equity Subcommittee at the McKinney Center, and their desire to highlight theexperiences of all voices in Washington County, Tennessee, with an intention toinclude marginalized groups. By showcasing these conversations, the Diversity& Equity subcommittee hopes to open doors to new ideas and perspectivesamongst our very own neighbors. Questions such as, “What was your experience ingrade-school and how did that make you feel?” or, “Have you experiencedexclusion or racism?” For many of us the answers are different and unique. TheMcKinney Center believes it is time to talk about our experiences and sharethem.
There is value in uplifting these stories so that we maylearn from one another. Then, after hearing from one another our moderators andguest conversationalists will give insight on how to move forward.
