Project Aims To Promote Communication Between Rural and Urban America

A project aimed at improving the understanding between rural and urban America will feature residents from Moberly and the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. Kathy Kiely from Mizzou’s School of Journalism explains.

Kiely thinks the project could blow up some stereotypes each area has about the other.

Area residents are invited to participate in a town hall at MACC October Sixth.

After the town halls in both communities, reporters will go out to cover the stories the participants ask about. For more information, or to register to attend, go to bit.ly/Oct6MoberlyMeeting.
