Program Description

Event Details

As an introduction to its Healing History initiative, Alabama Humanities Alliance offers Past Forward -- a participatory experience bringing people together to explore, and reflect upon, pieces of our shared past. 

By participating, you will have a chance to consider with others nearly 160 years of federal policies and discuss how decisions made in the past carry forward — directly affecting our lives, livelihoods, relationships, and communities today.

 Participants will: 

• Step into someone else’s shoes. 

• Share, and listen to, perspectives on the past. 

• Consider in what ways the past is present in our laws, cultures, and relationships today. 

• Enjoy lunch courtesy of Alabama Humanities Alliance. Past Forward takes a couple of hours. 

Participants will sit in small groups to go through the experience. Past Forward closes with opportunity for participants to reflect, share takeaways, and offer feedback.
