Visionary
Roundtable Discussions
The regularly scheduled Visionary
Roundtable Discussions are one of NVLP’s most popular programs. The
Roundtables provide a rare opportunity for a small, invited audience of young
people and seniors, to informally share ideas with some of the extraordinary
African American elders who have shaped our country’s history.
These lively, 90-minute exchanges are held in the Visionary Hall of Achievement,
located in our historic Washington, D.C. brownstone.

Using state-of-the-art
technology, NVLP webcasts these discussions live each month to a national
audience who are tuned in to this web site. (The sessions remain available
for viewing on the site for several weeks following the live broadcast.)
These Visionary Roundtable Discussions provide a critical opportunity
for the wisdom of our elders to be passed on to the next generation.
