Peterborough Town Library will host “Talking About Race 2.0,” a two-part program, March 19 and 26 at 1:30 p.m.
In June 2018, the library hosted “Talking about Race: Staying Curious, Moving Forward and Being Part of the Solution,” which was developed to explore and understand the issues that inform the daily lives of people of color. Grace Aldrich and Jim Guy offered to share their personal experiences of what it means to be African-American in the United States today. The core group is repeating the program, along with Claire Holston, Luis Rosa and Doug Sutherland at libraries and community centers in the area.
In the March 19 session, Guy, Holston, Rosa and Sutherland will talk about what they have learned from doing this program as well as what has changed and what hasn’t changed since that first program in 2018.
On March 26, they invite the participants back to devise, discuss and formulate future initiatives and actions related to local and national racial issues.
The program is in-person only and participants are asked to register at peterboroughtownlibrary.org.
Peterborough Town Library is located at 2 Concord St. in Peterborough and is open Monday to Saturday. For information on this program or any library services, visit
