MarketWatch’s Jon Friedman asks his readers what grade they would give the media for the way we cover race relations in America? And we’re wondering what grade you’d give the local media in covering race?
Do racial differences matter? Beyond skin color, are there differences? Why do disparities exist? Who or what causes them? Many questions about race persist; ignoring them won't foster understanding. We invite St. Louisans to join us for a conversation about race, drawing on the news of the day for inspiration. We're aiming for a safe forum where you are free to be candid, but required to be civil. If you seek understanding, education and tolerance, we welcome you.
