UNIGOV -- The Intended and Unintended Consequences

When: This Sunday May 15th 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM

Where: St. Luke's United Methodist Church (or online)100 West 86th Street Indianapolis, IN 46260

Event Info: https://www.eventbrite.com/.../unigov-the-intended-and..."

Reflecting on the most significant change to governance in the history of Indianapolis."

About this event:"Over 50 years ago, the people in power in Indianapolis, Marion County and the state legislature made a dramatic change in how central Indiana is governed.

Former Lt. Gov. John Mutz and former state Rep. Ned Lampkin were both present at the creation of unified city-county government, called UNIGOV. They will join City-County Council President Vop Osili, attorney Fay Williams and former IPS teacher Billie Breaux to discuss then-Mayor Richard Lugar's vision and how UNIGOV turned out.

Did it make local government more accountable? What role did race play?

Political analyst Abdul-Hakim Shabazz will moderate this rare opportunity to examine the dream and the reality of Unigov.

Presented by the Indiana Remembrance Coalition, in partnership with the Kurt Vonnegut Museum and Library and St. Luke's United Methodist Church.

For questions about this event, please contact IRC@stlukesumc.com."
