Black Males' Talk About Experiences in Vermont

A panel of Black males will talk about their experiences with race in Southern Vermont this Sunday, Sept. 20, at 1pm.

As the United States continues its reckoning with racism and inequality, what are the direct stories and perspectives of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) community members? Join us for this online event to hear the first-hand experiences of people of color, specifically black men, living in the Southern Vermont area.

The program will be accessible through Zoom and by telephone. To access the meeting, the registration link is: https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJcsdu-tqDMsHdUdJdy_puVWdR_a3x6k67hM
