Conversations with Purpose: On Race

Race in Singapore is a boundary that is both personal yet public, visible yet hidden, abstract yet real, evolving yet historically deep.

This workshop is an initiative rooted in Common Purpose’s research and commitment to developing leaders who can cross boundaries, but entirely shaped and driven by the unique Singaporean context.

Participants will then create groups and be guided by mentors to lead their own Conversation With Purpose with a chosen community by January 2023.

What We Inherit x City Book Room

“What is an Indian person supposed to look like?”

For Indian women in Singapore, questions that cast doubt on their identities are all too common. Expressions of identity that go against stereotype are often met with confusion and uncertainty – for example, when the race on their IC isn’t “Indian”, or when they study Chinese in school instead of Tamil.

Join us with three authors from What We Inherit as they unpack their personal essays about Indian womanhood. Look forward to revelations about identities that fall outside of CMIO markers, feelings of displacement and writing as catharsis.
