TEDxRVASalon, Take Up the Thread: Completing Our Story Together at the Black History Museum and Cultural Center of Virginia
Small group discussions will be facilitated by community leaders, authors, poets, journalists and other professionals in the writing world who dedicate their lives to shaping and documenting the stories of our time
On February 22nd the Black History Museum and Cultural Center of Virginia will open its’ doors to host a bit of story telling. The story might be your neighbor’s, your boss’, or perhaps your own.
Everyone has a story to tell, and often these stories are told through a singular lens. Unfortunately, most of our history has been taught this way and we’ve missed out on other perspectives. Now, there are more voices rising to the surface, and collectively they’re working to complete those stories.
Join us on February 22nd, 2017 from 6:30-8:30pm at The Black History Museum and Cultural Center of Virginia for our next TEDxRVASalon, Take Up the Thread: Completing Our Story Together, where we’ll screen two TED talks on this topic and learn about the importance of sharing our stories through a panel and small group discussion.
The small group discussions will be facilitated by community leaders, authors, poets, journalists and other professionals in the writing world who dedicate their lives to shaping and documenting the stories of our time. Come learn about the history not found in school textbooks and help us complete the story of Richmond.
