The Legacy of Desegregation is part one in “Choosing Equity,” ACSF’s four part community series on integration, inclusion, and equity in our schools.
Join us on Jan. 30 at 6:00 PM in the Stephens – Lee Recreation Center for a community conversation about the history of desegregation in Asheville City Schools. Middle school students from the Find Your Voice IRL program will provide a dramatic presentation of key events from the desegregation of the Asheville City Schools. Community leaders will share their lived-experiences of that time. We will explore the lasting legacy of the desegregation process in Asheville probing how it impacts our schools today. Food and childcare will be provided.
