Dear friends,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m thrilled to introduce you to our newest curator here at Town Hall Seattle, Lindsey T.H. Jackson. <\/a>Lindsey and I first met through Leadership Tomorrow, a program dedicated to catalyzing leaders across sectors. Inside of 30 minutes, I could see that Lindsey is a person who knows exactly what she wants \u2014 and what she hopes the world can be. The kind of person who believes deeply in humanity, justice, and coming together. And the kind of person who refuses to compromise her values (Case in point: Lindsey told me she once turned down a growth opportunity for her company, LTHJ Global, upon learning that the collaborator’s values didn’t align with hers.).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>

Lindsey\u2019s authenticity and leadership are truly inspiring. That’s why I\u2019m so proud that Town Hall is partnering with LTHJ Global to present Lindsey\u2019s Unlearning<\/em> <\/a>series. <\/strong>This series isn\u2019t just about hearing ideas \u2014 it\u2019s about experiencing real conversations that challenge us. Each event brings together thought leaders to dive deep into today\u2019s most pressing topics like racism, misogyny, and ableism, leaving space for big questions and even bigger dreams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The questions raised by Unlearning<\/em> events won\u2019t always have easy answers, or any answers, for that matter.<\/strong> And that\u2019s the point. One of Town Hall\u2019s hopes is that the building serves as a space for all <\/em>feelings; joy, curiosity, grief, discomfort. We love sharing feel-good moments together, and we also know it\u2019s vital to our shared humanity to feel uncomfortable and explore tough conversations head-on. Town Hall is a safe space to grow, challenge your own perspectives, and leave with a renewed sense of purpose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
