Danville United – LIVE! (2/12/2015)

We’re LIVE! at Averett University’s Riverview Campus for tonight’s Danville United meeting. The meeting is over. I’ll be adding more content and photos on Friday.

We’re underway.

Ron Johnson introduces our speaker.

 

Vice-chairman John Carroll welcomes us and Chairman Ron Johnson introduces our speaker, Wanda Abraha. She’s the director of human relations for the city of Winston-Salem, NC.

Carrie Ashe pins on a corsage gift on behalf of Danville’s Delta Sigma Theta alumni.

 

I’m disappointment in the sparse crowd. Danville United is a good organization that has great quality presentations.

Abraha’s Commission is in charge of investigating discrimination cases. They have limited regulatory authority from state and federal laws. They also have a College Advisory Board from local college students. They advise City Council on their viewpoint on issues that impact them, like transit issues. Abraha really knows her stuff and is a terrific speaker.

I’ll add more content and photos on Friday.
