Please join us for a panel discussion of what it means to be ‘Black in the Berkshires’. African Americans have always been part of the rich history and culture of the Berkshires. But how many of us are aware of that history? What are the stories that are not being told, the voices that are not being heard? Remembering the past, assessing the present, and planning for the future – please be part of this important community conversation. Free – everyone welcome!
