SUMMARY:Conversation & Connection
DESCRIPTION:A community conversation about belonging\, memory\, and how we stay connected across difference. \n\n\n\nThe Divides Project\, in collaboration with Malden Reads and the Chinese Culture Connection (CCC)\, invite the community to a free evening of conversation and connection in the welcoming space of CCC’s new community room and offices. \n\n\n\nInspired by the themes of this year’s Malden Reads book selection Our Missing Hearts by Celeste Ng\, this community gathering invites participants of all backgrounds to come together for conversation—about division\, belonging\, and connection. \n\n\n\nYou do not need to have read the book to attend. Through facilitated conversation\, we’ll explore questions that feel especially present today: Why do divides emerge? How do fear and misunderstanding take root? What helps communities stay connected across differences? \n\n\n\nWhether or not you have read the book\, we will make it easy and welcoming to join the discussion. \n\n\n\nRefreshments will be provided.
