The protests and riots over racial injustices represent only the latest in a year of nationwide demonstrations against racism, white supremacy, and police violence. The ongoing movements in both France and the United States have captured international attention and provided political fodder. How can cities that have seen so much violence move towards social change during a worldwide pandemic?
Join Clare Hart, Vice-President for International Affairs and European Cooperation & Municipal Councillor for International Relations, and Kendall Boyd, Chief Equity Officer for Louisville Metro Government, as they discuss how Louisville and Montpellier have responded to the calls for racial justice and what cities can do in the wake of unrest.
This program will be moderated by Sabeen Nasim, Director of the Louisville Metro Office for Globalization.
