Matt Largen joins us this week for an important discussion about responding to racism. Over the past several months, racial inequality and racism have gained more public attention, especially after the murder of George Floyd. Matt is leading with an example to show how a Chamber of Commerce can play a role in seeing that these racial issues get the attention they deserve.
Matt share with us how Williamson, Inc. led an initiative to have the image of the confederate flag removed from their county seal. Williamson, Inc. has also established a Black Business Coalition to create a platform for voices to be hear and ideas to be shared while providing guidance and support for the members of this coalition.
