If you live in Colorado, and especially if you have a keen interest in working for greater racial equity and more inclusive government, we invite you to check out Everyday Democracy's national meeting, Making Every Voice Matter.
Most events will take place at the Renaissance Hotel, 3801 Quebec Street in Denver, but there's a program set for 4 to 5:30 p.m. today (Wednesday, June 11) at the Penrose Branch Library in Colorado Springs. Matt Leighninger will be there to talk about his book, The Next Form of Democracy: How Expert Rule Is Giving Way to Shared Governance - and Why Politics Will Never Be the Same. See more info here.
Thursday's first public event, set for 4 to 6 p.m. at the Renaissance Hotel, is a free program dedicated to the legacy of John Parr, a longtime national and Colorado civic leader who died late last year. (More below the fold ...)
