Jackson Academy, 1000 N Hague Avenue, Columbus, Ohio, from 5–7:30 P.M.
With the theme “Many Cultures, Shared Rights, One Columbus,” the conversation will bring together established civil rights organizations, New American communities, and longtime Columbus residents for an educational and community-building dialogue.
“It is aimed at exploring the nexus between civil rights and community building in Columbus and assessing how residents can better access educational and civil rights resources for increased community and public participation,” said Lindora Kolu Howard-Diawara, Community Relations Coordinator, New American Program & Administrative Coordinator.
“Featuring groups include Columbus Police Department, Columbus NAACP, League of Women Voters, Urban League and 311 Services.”
