Black History is Utah History: A Community Conversation

In April’s Community Conversation, our panel will discuss topics surrounding Black history in Utah, moderated by Utah House Rep Sandra Hollins. The discussion will happen virtually, on Zoom.

This panel will explore ways to incorporate the history of all Utahns, with a focus on our Black community and the importance of providing a complete, honest, and diverse history in education. This event is held in a partnership with the Salt Lake City Mayor’s Office, and YouthCity.
