Our Hour: By the Community, for the Community
Join us Tuesday, November 18 at 1:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. Eastern / 10:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. Pacific for an opportunity to engage with Keri Blackrock, GM of KGHR in Tuba City, Arizona. She will share her station’s story and offer insights into what it takes to truly develop a station of, by, and for the people. Together, we will discuss how people from other BIPOC communities can be a source of support and unity with Native communities.
Our Hour continues to be a space where open and honest dialogue leads to deeper connection and stronger collaboration, focused on cultivating community through the exchange of ideas. As a reminder, we always set aside time at the beginning of each town hall to share recent professional achievements, industry news, conference experiences, job openings, and available resources. Coming prepared to share your insights will serve as an introduction to our discussion topic.
Please note that this town hall is 90 minutes. Once you register, please use the links in your confirmation email from Zoom (not Google) to add the town hall to your calendar.
Our Hour is for people who identify as *BIPOC, biracial or multiracial; this is a camera-on environment to offer connection as well as safety. Sharing this invitation with other BIPOC-identifying colleagues will assist in growing the Our Hour community.
*The term BIPOC is inclusive of Black/African people of the diaspora, Indigenous people, people of Latin American descent, people of Pacific Island descent, Arab and Middle Eastern people, and Asian people of all backgrounds. Our Hour utilizes BIPOC as an inclusive term that acknowledges the shared and distinct experiences of racialized people in navigating systems of power, oppression, and belonging.
