Nine PBS: Community Conversation
Nine PBS is pleased to invite the community to participate in a new series of community conversations focused on democracy, civic engagement, and local history as we approach the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States of America.
- What does democracy mean to you—in your life, community, or history?
- Which parts of the government feel confusing or overlooked, and why do you think that is?
We want to discuss your answers to those questions and more in a new series of community conversations focused on democracy, civic engagement, and local history.
East Central College Discussion
A discussion will take place at East Central College on June 18, 5:30-7:00 p.m.
- East Central Training Center, 350 Audrey Lane, Union, Missouri 63804

At #NinePBS, community engagement is central to how we serve—and these conversations are one of the ways we stay connected to what matters most: hearing directly from you about your priorities, experiences, and hopes for the future. Insights from these conversations will help shape future storytelling ahead of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States in 2026.
This series of community conversations will explore how people in our region understand, experience, and participate in democracy, past and present. Through open-ended, nonpartisan dialogue, we aim to surface shared themes, elevate community voices and spark ideas for future stories and civic engagement efforts.
Your voice matters—help shape the conversation and the future of our community!
