Barroom Conversations
The St. Louis Beacon sponsors weekly conversations on race, related to the publication's year-long special coverage of issues and situations related to race in the St. Louis region. The lightly-moderated discussions begin with a specific topic, but like all good conversations, veer off in different and rewarding directions. The general topic now is "Finding Common Ground." The Barroom Conversations begin at 7:30 p.m. every Monday in the Half-Pint Room, to the left of the lobby at the Schlafly Brewery and Taproom at 22nd and Locust. Everyone is welcome.
