Presidential elections, impeachment, protests, a suffering economy, and a growing pandemic is the focus of a recent discussion led by Norwich-area youth.
However, the talk didn’t examine conditions here in the United States, but instead addressed what is happening in the South American country of Peru.
The discussion led to the creation of a banner stating “We are with Peru” that is hanging on the Route 82 eastbound bridge near the American Wharf Marina.
