At its center is the story of how Richmond, Virginia, a former slave market and capital of the Confederacy, has become a seedbed for interracial dialogue and trustbuilding with national and international implications. City and county residents of all backgrounds launched an unprecedented and sustained effort to address the "toxic issue of race." Known as Hope in the Cities, this endeavor is now in its second decade of work. Trustbuilding is unflinchingly honest about the difficulties of mobilizing communities around racial reconciliation. Former Virginia Governor Tim Kaine will speak at this national book launching event. Music will be provided by One Voice. A reception will follow the event The event is free and open to the public. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tameka B.
