Our Local Color Project 2019-20 season is made possible by the generous support of Bank of America.

As our beloved community joins others around the nation in the important unfinished work to make the promise of equality a reality, constructive conversation helps to illuminate the path to progress and meaningful change. In that spirit, a group of community leaders share diverse perspectives about critical and relevant issues in a special series of Town Hall presentations — presented by The Village Square in partnership with Bethel Missionary Baptist Church, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Florida, and Sachs Media Group.

Part 2 in our series focuses on “Equality in Life: Business and Growth,” facilitated by Heidi Otway, President of SalterMitchell PR.

Joining the conversation: Commissioner Dianne Williams-Cox, Tallahassee City Commission Commissioner Bryan Desloge, Leon County Chair Beth Corum, Chair of the Board, Greater Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce Katrina Tuggerson, Capital City Chamber of Commerce Antonio Jefferson, President, Big Bend Minority Chamber of Commerce Peter Boulware, Owner, Legacy Toyota Dominick Ard’is, Founder & CEO at ACT House, INC Dr. Shawnta Friday-Stroud, Dean, FAMU School of Business and Industry
