A week of community collaboration and discussion is set to occur at Cal Poly Humboldt’s 27th annual Campus and Community Dialogue on Race (CDOR). From Monday, Oct. 20 to Friday, Oct. 24, there will be panels, informational sessions, workshops, performances and community dialogue throughout campus, with this year’s theme focusing on disconnecting to reconnect. Events will take place from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m. daily, including in-person, online and hybrid events.
“Our inclusive platform serves to affirm cultural identities, uplift historical marginalized voices and welcome people of all backgrounds into a shared space of growth and transformation,” as stated on the CDOR page of the university’s website.
Many topics will be explored throughout the event. In-person workshops such as Permission to Pause will revolve around workplace overproductivity and taking a step back from your workload, while others like Radical Rest for the Heart of Humanity will include somatic exercises that are intended to help participants reset their bodies and minds through movement.
