A legacy of hope in tumultuous times: The Nevada Black Legislative Caucus celebrates Black History

Despite efforts from the Trump administration to eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion programs, Black History Month celebrations are underway at the state capital. As the Sierra Nevada Ally's Alex Couraud reports, the events are shining a message of hope and resilience during tumultuous times. 

This show is made possible by Press Forward, a national coalition investing more than $500 million to strengthen local newsrooms and close longstanding gaps in journalism coverage.

Music for the show comes from local band, People with Bodies.
