The Initiatives for Identity, Inclusion & Belonging (i3b) team is excited to announce a new initiative, OCA Mocha Mondays: Diversity Dialogues with i3b. At i3b, we believe in utilizing dialogue and dialogue skills, like generous listening and cross-cultural storytelling, to co-create a more socially just future. Further, we believe in the importance of community both across campus and with our wider community of neighbors.

Hosted by the campus-community coffee shop, OCA Mocha, OCA Mocha Mondays invites campus and community to join together to begin dialoguing about the social justice topics that impact our daily lives. Please join us and invite others in your community! Our first session is Monday, February 15th from 6-7:30pm. This session’s topic is “Unpacking Identity”, where we'll be engaging in dialogue about our individual identities as entry points to talking about and understanding social justice. See the attached flyer for more detailed information.

OCA Mocha Mondays: Diversity Dialogues with i3b will be held virtually, but once it's safe to return, we will gather together in person at OCA Mocha.
