Our Hour: A Gathering for BIPOC in Public Media

Thursday, July 9, 2026 | 12:15 p.m. – 1:45 p.m. | RSVP Required

This year’s Our Hour Luncheon provides a space to network with other Professionals of Color working within every area of public media. More details are forthcoming.

Here’s what people enjoyed about last year’s luncheon:

  • It felt safe and was truly inspiring. As a new person in public media it was reassuring to know that there were others like me.
  • That it was a time to laugh and enjoy! It was refreshing and gave me energy for the rest of the conference.
  • Communing with other BIPOC folks working in an industry that is not always for us. Especially appreciated the intergenerational conversations and the advice and encouragement from industry veterans for folks newer to public media…

The RSVP link will be sent to PMGC registrants via email in May. Our Hour is made possible with generous support from PRX.

Please note: This event is designed as a space for BIPOC, biracial, and multiracial individuals to openly discuss our experiences working in the public media industry.
