Community Connectors: Suggestions From Mission-Driven Stores Walking the Talk

If you are interested in prioritizing community engagement for societal change, this is a conversation you will not want to miss. A panel of booksellers who represent stores with strong missions will take you behind the scenes of the media coverage and social media posts that reflect the success of their work. They will discuss the very real and substantive processes they have in place to create change. If you want to hear about the actionable steps mission-driven stores take for success, this is the conversation for you!

Panelists: Jamie Thomas, Women & Children First (Chicago, IL); Veronica Liu, Word Up Community Bookshop/Librería Comunitaria (New York, NY); Kathy Burnette, Brain Lair Books (South Bend, IN); Errol Anderson, Charis Books & More (Decatur, GA)
