Yesterday, Appetite For Change proudly participated in the Black History Month Event at the Thomson Reuters Eagan campus! In partnership with UMN press and 'We Miss You, George Floyd' authors Shannon Gibney and Leeya Rose Jackson - we came together to share positive messages for social change. It was an inspiring day filled with dialogue, community, and empowerment.
