Testimonials 

"I felt the safety necessary to be vulnerable in this space. So many times I am closed off and reserved due to the fear of not being understood, respected or well received but at The Dinner Table I felt the comfort I needed to have a vulnerable dialogue."

"After today's event I would frame a picture of a 15 year old girl with an afro standing on the globe. This image would represent that my black is beautiful and society would never tear me down. This event meant so much to me because silence was my loudest scream and The Dinner Table is now my voice. Thank you."
