Join longtime friends author Vivian Gibson and St. Michael & St. George member Harry Moppins for book signing, lunch, and conversation about their childhoods in deeply segregated St. Louis.
Vivian Gibson was raised in Mill Creek Valley, a long-established African-American neighborhood encompassing a broad area that now includes the soccer stadium in downtown St. Louis. Harry Moppins was raised in The Ville, a deeply-rooted African American neighborhood in north St. Louis. Their engaging conversation about changes they have seen over their lifetimes will add depth and breadth to Ms. Gibson’s widely-read memoir.
