Activists Hope Listening Sessions Bring Understanding

Two activists in the West Virginia’s Morgantown are organizing a listening project that they hope leads to greater racial understanding. Susan Eason and Eve Faulkes are recruiting people from many different backgrounds and pairing them up to explore how their ideas about race are formed. They hope the six-month-long “Listening for Racial Understanding Project” will bring about real dialogue. With permission, listening sessions will be recorded and turned into a production featuring local musicians that will be made available on YouTube.
