Join Racial Truth & Reconciliation Virginia as we honor Dr. Martin Luther
King, Jr. who embodied racial resilience, peacemaking, reconciliation, and
justice. This event will authentically address Virginia's reckoning of the
past and reconciling of the present and examine the role that educational
entities play in shedding light on historical trauma and the retelling of
history. Participants will engage communities in pursuing their own journey
of truth and reconciliation. Join Voices for Virginia's Children, Virginia
Museum of Fine Arts, American Civil War Museum, The Valentine, The Library
of Virginia, Initiatives of Change, and Art Activists who will perform
through a virtual showcase. Go to the main page when the event starts to
view on FB Live!
