Written by LiRon Anderson-Bell on July 29, 2016
It was a pleasure to partner with the team at TheRoot.com to host our live broadcast, “Our Power, Our Promise: Shaping A Black Policy Agenda” during the DNC.

TheRoot.com published a great recap of the event, and the video highlights are at the top of the page. Be sure to check out the slideshow too!
