The primary race for the President of the Board of Aldermen is a critical opportunity for citizens to shape political leadership and policy priorities for the City of St. Louis. Following up on our successful Mayoral Forum of 2017, the SPEAC coalition is organizing a primary candidate forum. The Forum puts Racial Equity front-and-center, focusing on pressing regional issues including child and youth well-being, health disparities, economic opportunity, neighborhood improvement, and criminal justice.
Questions will be aligned to Calls to Action from the Ferguson Commission Report.
