For 25 years, small groups of Birmingham-area teens, from different races and different backgrounds, have met – one Sunday afternoon each month – to talk about issues of privilege, prejudice and social inequity.
The gatherings go by the name PEACE Birmingham – for “People Engaged in A Cultural Exchange.”
It’s a quiet initiative that many people in the Birmingham area don’t know about. But for the students and adults who’ve participated over the past quarter century, the impact has been life-altering.
“It is such a great program,” said Seth Green, who participated in PEACE Birmingham some 20 years ago while in high school. Now a senior engineer at Alabama Power, Green recently became reengaged in the initiative as a volunteer adviser.
