2020 Community Luncheon Canceled

Wednesday, May 6, 2020  •  Noon–1:30 PM
Benton Convention Center, Salem Ballroom (upper level)
Winston-Salem, North Carolina

Due to the growing coronavirus threat, the Foundation has canceled the 2020 Community Luncheon scheduled for May 6.  Registered table sponsors will be notified soon with more information.

The Foundation is committed to advancing racial equity across all our work in Forsyth County, and we believe we must first understand our history in order to become a community where race no longer predicts life outcomes.

This year’s multi-media program highlights the history and policies that created residential segregation, both locally and throughout the U.S. We welcome Dr. Elizabeth Herbin-Triant, assistant professor of history at the University of Massachusetts Lowell and author of Threatening Property: Race, Class, and Campaigns to Legislate Jim Crow Neighborhoods, which focuses on Winston-Salem. She’ll be joined in conversation with Dr. Russ Smith, professor of geography at Winston-Salem State University and faculty lead of the Spatial Justice Studio.

We hope you will join us on May 6 as we continue to learn together.
