Event Details

Join Eudell Watts III in a conversation about the parts of history that aren't usually front and center. Eudell has spent many years advocating for the recognition of African-American and Indigenous Americans in our shared history.

Eudell has plenty of stories to share and people to highlight, but he also wants to hear from YOU! The conversation will start with examples of underlooked heroes of color in the American military, but please bring any questions you have about the topic in general.

Please note, this program was originally scheduled for Thursday, June 20.
