The City of Longview Partners in Prevention’s Unity and Diversity Committee (UDC) will host “Longview Listens: Accidentally Naive” at 6:00 p.m., Monday, Aug. 12, 2019, at First Christian Church at 720 N. Sixth St. Longview Listens seeks to promote unity and diversity in Longview by creating a safe environment through which we include, inform, and celebrate all individuals through community dialogue. Longview Listens is hosted by UDC and will focus on open and civil dialogue in small group conversations centered around being “Accidentally Naïve” about race and culture. The event will include a activity, which will be followed by a breakout into several discussion groups lead by trained facilitators.
The event is free, but an RSVP is requested by calling 903-237-1019 or signing up through Facebook @longviewunityanddiversity.
