The event will feature a selection of “Scranton Stories” video interviews that include Black Scrantonians giving voice to a range of stories and experiences across different themes and topics as well as each participant’s hopes for the city and the nation. The evening will involve a screening of 6 video interviews (1-hour total in length) with a panel discussion to follow that includes interviewees.
