DETAILS

Join us for a powerful four-day summit where stories become strategies and lived experience drives change. While we center Black Appalachian voices, this gathering welcomes all who are ready to reclaim power, protect our communities, and strengthen our democracy. Over four days, attendees will explore how storytelling can shape public understanding, activate communities, and inform the policies that impact our lives. Together, we’ll connect across race, place, and movement to build collective power and drive forward a more just and equitable future. This is where stories become strategies. This is where change begins—with the people. Join us.
