  • Sandra Conant Strachan has memories of town meetings held during the Mississippi 200 campaign, focused on delivering 200 Town Meetings throughout the state.
  • Jill Persichetti shares her memories of what it took to setup and lead (she facilitated more than 100 herself) Town Meetings particularly in Texas during the 1976 U.S. Bicentennial.
