The mission of the project is “to afford the opportunity for the citizens of two communities, one predominately black and the other predominately white, to talk with each other, listen to each other and share with each other with the goal of broadening understanding between people.”
A proclamation declaring local government support for these efforts was approved unanimously in early 2017 by both the Tuskegee City Council and the South Berwick Town Council.
One of the guiding principles of the sister city project is the belief that conversation is important to our mission: "to talk, listen and engage with each other to improve and sustain better race relations." To this end, the Common Ground joint committee organizes dialogues that invite residents of both towns to participate in facilitated discussions on race relations.
Common Ground will be holding quarterly small session dialogues about race with members of both communities.
