Engaging Dialogue at CU
Participants at the Juneteenth Address were invited to join a dialogues mixer the following day.
What is a Dialogue Mixer?
CU Dialogues understands dialogue mixer as a semi-structured interactive dialogue session designed to encourage participants to engage in meaningful conversations with a variety of people in a short amount of time. The goal of a dialogue mixer is to facilitate the exchange of diverse perspectives, promote radical listening, and foster a sense of community.

Participants were asked, what was the most impactful part of Dr. Danielle Hodge’s Juneteenth address for you?
"The idea that we all have the agency and ability and obligation to engage in collective imagination and action to shift our communities beyond anti-blackness."
"Dr. Hodge's address was very meaningful for me. I was impacted by Dr. Hodge's invitation to imagine as a revolutionary act. Her description and imagery of Black joy was beautiful, powerful, and moving."
"The presentation and delivery was top notch incredible. I loved how she used narrative stories to bring the viewers in and candor that really grounded the address and made it thought provoking and inspiring."
