2020 - Making Space for Connection

During River Rally 2020, we asked attendees if they wanted opportunities post-Rally to connect regarding the role of racial justice in the movement for clean water and beyond. The answer was a resounding yes. August 2020 marked the first of these open discussions, facilitated by River Network’s Sheyda Esnaashari and 2020 Emerging Leader Megan Nguyen. The open forum, held via Zoom, allowed network members to begin working toward racial justice and create a path forward toward learning and action.
