When award-winning NPR journalist and former All Things Considered c0-host Michele Norris released her first book “The Grace of Silence: A Memoir” in 2010, it was the beginning of a unique national conversation on race.

On October 1st, Norris comes to Pittsburgh to give a talk entitled “Eavesdropping on America’s Conversation on Race,” a part of the Carnegie Museum of Natural History exhibition, “Race: Are We So Different?” She talks with us about how far we’ve come with that conversation on race.
