Grateful for opportunity to hear Barbara Kingsolver as part of a RUBI Briefing

 Barbara Kingsolver was the featured speaker on November 7 with RUBI - the Rural Urban Bridge Initiative. It was a conversation about Appalachia and her most recent book, Demon Copperhead.  She also talked about her work fighting the opiod epidemic in her region.
