The Power of Truthful Narratives, a panel about confronting our histories, will be held from 3:30 -5:00  on May 4. It features Elijah Gaddis, Hollifield Associate Professor of Southern History at Auburn University, Albert “Peter” Datcher, local genealogist and community historian and Kathryn R. King, Co-Founder of The Montevallo Legacy Project, with Joe McGill of the Slave Dwelling Project following with a response.
