Our Hour: Remaining Anchored During The Storm

Wednesday, May 14, 2025
3:00 p.m. Eastern / 12:00 p.m. Pacific

Public media is in turmoil. How do we remain anchored while weathering the storms ahead? Now is the time for pragmatism – a time for channeling our energy, strengthening our connection, and sharpening our focus.

Join us on Wednesday, May 14 at 3:00 p.m. Eastern / 12:00 p.m. Pacific for a 90-minute town hall discussion led by Minal Bopaiah, Founder of Brevity & Wit and author of Equity: How to Design Organizations Where Everyone Thrives, where we’ll tackle pressing concerns with a focus on how to use strategy to keep steady and maintain our wellbeing.

To help guide the discussion, submit your questions and comments by Friday, May 9, for consideration.

Our Hour is for people who identify as Black, Indigenous, People of Color, biracial or multiracial; this is a camera-on environment to offer connection as well as safety. Sharing this event with other BIPOC-identifying colleagues will assist in growing the Our Hour community.
