More than 200 South Floridians gathered at Miami Dade College’s Wolfson Campus recently for “Can We Talk; Really, Can We Talk?,” a thought-provoking community discussion that touched upon several issues affecting the community.
The event was organized by MCCJ, the non-profit organization that has embraced Miami’s diversity since 1935, and featured former Miami Herald publisher David Lawrence as the moderator and ten prominent local leaders.
