Join us for No Hate on My Plate hosted by the Barefoot Republic. The meal will be provided by Pathways Kitchen at no cost to the participants.

No Hate on My Plate is an event series designed to bring people together around a shared meal to discuss their experiences and observations of hate, bias, and discrimination in their communities. Natural conversations will be aided by a moderator who will ensure conversations stay relevant and substantive while maintaining a safe and welcoming space.

We use the following principles to engage in dialogue:

We will speak for ourselves and allow others to speak for themselves with no pressure to represent or explain a whole group.
We will not criticize the views of others or attempt to persuade them.
We will listen with resilience, “hanging in” when something is hard to hear.
We will share airtime and participate within the suggested timeframes.
We will not interrupt except to indicate that we cannot or did not hear a speaker.
We will “pass” or “pass for now” if we are not ready or willing to respond to a question.
We will hold, in confidence, what we hear in this circle. We will not confront one another about circle comments after we leave here.
We may go hard against ideas, ideologies, and institutions. We will not, however, harm or attack individuals within or beyond this circle.

The discussions simultaneously create community among the gathered participants and provide information about what issues seem to be bubbling up in different areas. This organically leads to networks of support and creates opportunities for early intervention if a particular issue seems to be at a tipping point.

Events are limited to 36 attendees, so tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

No Hate on My Plate is a project of the Metro Human Relations Commission.

We look forward to seeing you!
