New Americans can be a hidden community, despite many being in Vermont for decades; their shared stories can educate the Vermont public and serve as a conduit for bonding, empathy, and understanding within and outside those communities. Join Vermont Public for a conversation with community leaders from Vermont New American Advisory Council and the Asian American and Pacific Islander Vermont Community. The moderator is longtime journalist, and story gatherer Fran Stoddard. Community, Culture & New Americans is a virtual event welcoming everyone from all corners of the state to listen and share. Thursday, August 25th at 7:00 p.m.
