Call for Proposals

Facing Race is a multiracial, multi-issue, intergenerational conference that underscores campaigns, projects, research, and art, promoting systemic solutions to racial justice challenges. At Facing Race, attendees receive the tools and knowledge to dismantle systemic racism in their communities.

For 2026, we are welcoming in-person proposals for engaging 90-minute breakout sessions. These sessions can manifest in various formats, such as film screenings, panel discussions, hands-on art projects, or skill-building.

Each breakout session can accommodate up to two presenters and is designed for an audience ranging from 75 to 150 attendees.

Deadline to submit your application is March 16th, 2026. For more information about becoming a presenter for a breakout session, please contact [email protected].
