Until this summer, it seemed unlikely that anything would overtake the coronavirus as the top story of any given day, week, or month. Issues of racial justice and discussions about the best ways to address police brutality remain in the conversation around the world and right here in northeast Indiana. AVOW assembled a panelfor a nearly two hour conversation outside at Barr Street Market.
Panelists include:
Michelle Chambers, Fort Wayne City Councilwoman
Dottie Davis, Davis Corporate Training, Retired Director of Security, Fort Wayne Community Schools
Sofia Rosales-Scatena, Public Information Officer in the Community Relations Division
Brittiane Jones, Fort Wayne native, LGBTQ activist
