16 March 2023: Got to listen to the opening plenary session of the Virginia Forum, which is happening at Shepherd this year thanks to my colleague, Jim. The session, entitled "“No Two Alike: From the Frontlines of Virginia’s School Desegregation, Diverse Pioneers Tell You Their Stories," was really fascinating, as four people told of their experiencing with school desegregation. To state the obvious, this was not that long ago. Yet today, so many are unwilling to hear these stories and learn these lessons--and are working to keep others from doing so, too.
