Controversy History – Social Stability: Voting Rights & Redistricting

Call for Tickets: 804-649-0711
We are proud to announce our Controversy/History series! This new take on our long-running Community Conversations will explore contentious, present-day issues by comparing historic debates with modern data.
With Controversy/History, the Valentine continues to encourage timely, sometimes uncomfortable but always relevant discussions that inspire action and promote progress.
The first event of the series will focus on voting rights and redistricting using the historic figures Lila Meade Valentine and Sallie May Dooley, data on voting trends and demographics, in-depth conversations, as well as concrete action steps for attendees.

We are partnering with the Capital Region Collaborative and aligning our discussion topics with their regional priorities. We are also proud to partner with radio host Kelli Lemon for our biography segments.
