Don’t miss this special storytelling event where we’ll travel 100 years back to trace how the long and under-explored history of Harry and Clementine Robinson, featured in our “Ghost of a Chance” podcast, brought us to that moment in 2020 when George Floyd’s death at the hands of police sparked a global racial reckoning.
