Telling our stories! |

We will explore how stories shape the ways people respond to our issues. Learn ways of challenging untrue and outdated stories.

Working in small groups, participants will develop effective and creative ways to tell the story about voting rights, economic justice, and coal and energy issues in Kentucky. |
