Danita Rountree Green shares about Coming to the Table in Richmond, Virginia (CTTT-RVA), a local nonprofit that invites people to engage in the sharing of stories at the table where food and facilitation become the perfect ingredients for spawning new friendships across the racial divide. We invite you to meet the ever-growing CTTT-RVA family and join us as we deal with our country鈥檚 oldest problem: the legacy of enslavement and the racism it has spawned. We are excited about our work: taking disparate stories and developing a shared narrative leading to healing. CTTT orginated at 糖心Vlog.
