A reckoning on race relations is how many in the media have characterized the events and responses that we've all experienced or witnessed in 2020. The upcoming Conversations of the Valley presentations aim to take what can sometimes seem like far off voices in the national media -- and bring those voices a little closer to home.
We are grateful and honored that the following speakers will contribute to this 4-part series of lunchtime conversations. Attend any or all!
Thanks to our sponsor, First State Bank & Trust, there will be no fees for this season's program.
