Connection
Breaking Bread.
Breaking Chains.
Intergenerational table experiences rooted in love, liberation, and legacy.
What is Breaking Bread. Breaking Chains.™?
Breaking Bread. Breaking Chains.™ calls us back to the Table for what we've been distracted from for way too long: conversation, connection, and community.
We gather across generations to listen, tell the truth, and stay in conversation long enough for something to shift.
Why do Intergenerational conversations matter?
Every generation carries something the others need.
Young people remind us of what life taught us to forget. Elders help us see a little farther down the road.
When we listen to one another, everybody leaves the Table with something they didn't bring.
"The youngest voice in the room can speak to the youngest version of ourselves."
Why do young people Lead and Set Tables here at MIC-AMPED?
Because young people aren't waiting for their turn to matter.
Their questions, concerns, hopes, and dreams help determine what needs to be talked about, who needs to be invited, and what needs to be asked.
They don't just have a seat at the Table.
They help set it.
What does Breaking Chains = Breaking Silence mean?
Some things keep their power because we don't talk about them. A misunderstanding. An assumption. A question we were afraid to ask. Something everybody knows but nobody says.
Truth keeps love from becoming enabling, and love keeps truth from becoming a weapon.
We don't have to agree to listen, understand, and respond with care.
