DESCRIPTION:\nTuesday\, Feb 15 at 11 a.m.\n\n\n\nhttps://upike.zoom.us/j/91018684453\n\n\n\nDr. William (Bill) H. Turner has spent his professional career studying and working on behalf of marginalized communities\, helping them create opportunities in the larger world while not abandoning their important cultural ties. He is best known for his groundbreaking research on African-American communities in Appalachia\, but Bill’s work is universal. As an academic and a consultant\, he has studied economic systems and social structures in the urban South and burgeoning Latino communities in the Southwest. What he strives for on behalf of his clients and their communities is what we all want: prosperity\, understanding and respect. Today\, Bill and his wife\, Vivian – the retired President of the R.J. Reynolds Foundation in Winston-Salem\, N.C. – live near their children and grandchildren in Houston. Bill will be sharing about his latest book\, The Harlan Renaissance: Stories of Black Life in Appalachian Coal Towns\n
