Committing to Conversation Statement of Intent
Committing to Conversation is a grassroots engagement initiative envisioned and designed by Lilli Lewis, singer/songwriter, label manager and A&R Head of Louisiana Red Hot Records and member of FAI’s New Orleans Advisory Council, with the wholehearted support of FAI’s staff, board, and Cultural Equity Task Force.  

The aim of this initiative is to create and hold space for small scale facilitated conversations about race, cultural equity and social justice between willing participants invested in the desire to hear and understand each other.  The program has a long-term goal of normalizing conversations about systemic racism within our folk music community,  fostering a culture of communication across a spectrum of experience, and engaging members in the work of active allyship.

The invitation to join is extended to all FAI members, with the understanding that space is limited.  Those wishing to participate in Committing to Conversation will be required to fill out a Statement of Intent application.
 
FAI and host facilitators will select up to 6 participants for each conversation, and selected participants will be contacted with the meeting link and additional information.  If you are interested in participating, please fill out your Statement of Intent and we will be in touch with you.
