UNDERSTANDING BOSTON
Boston Talks Race
THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF FORUMS
Exploring the Reputation and the Reality of Race Relations in Our City
Known as the ‘Mecca’ and intellectual center for African Americans in the 19th century, today Boston has a mixed record on race relations, with a low point during court-ordered desegregation of the Boston Public Schools in the 1970s. Please join the Urban League of Eastern Massachusetts in the first of a series of forums in conjunction with Commonwealth Compact, the Museum of Science, and the Boston Foundation on the occasion of the Museum of Science exhibit called Race: Are We So Different?
Wednesday, January 26, 2011
