The Westminster Town Hall Forum is Minnesota's longest-running, free national speaker series. Eight to ten times each year, the Forum hosts world-class speakers to give free and open talks in downtown Minneapolis.
In 1980, Diane and Paul Neimann recognized a need in the greater community for an expanded understanding of the complex issues confronting our society and world. They developed the concept of a free, noontime forum where leading thinkers, authors, innovators, and activists could provide ethical reflection on pressing contemporary issues.
A guiding theme for the Forum was established - voices of conscience: key issues in ethical perspective. To ensure that the Forum included a broad range of ideas and opinions, the founders determined that forums would be nonpartisan, nonsectarian, and free and open to the public. Those basis tenets remain essential components of the Forum today.

Michele Norris: Our Hidden Conversations
Award-winning journalist Michele Norris speaking about her best-selling book, "Our Hidden Conversations; What Americans Really Think About Race and Identity."
For more than a decade, Norris asked people around the world to send in their stories. The prompt was simple: "Race. Your Story. Six Words. Please Send." She and the Race Card Team collected more than 500,000 stories, many of which are complied in and expanded in "Our Hidden Conversations." The results are shocking in their depth and candor, spanning the full spectrum of race, ethnicity, identity, and class. Norris discuss all of this in this program, recorded in Minneapolis on February 1, 2024.

Keyu Jin (China, helping the West in understanding economy), 39:50 51:48 China keeps its own house in order (hi J.Peterson;). The US do the opposite :( 1:01:05 Qns start
Micheal will get to write about a strong First Gentleman next year. Kamala 2024.
thank you, dr thomas...
When hos/leaders are crooked, it's politician and government will be bad
Nothing but China CCP propaganda; spouts the same line as party hacks: 1 billion people have been lifted out of poverty..........wrong !!!!!!!!
Dr. Keyu Jin is pretty and highly intelligent. She spoke so eloquently and so well.
因为中国人很多,所以不能使用美国式的(民主)制度?多么荒唐的经济学家!
Chinese people are always too polite. When it comes to the US banning Tic Tok, the speaker did not say that the US abused national security and banned Huawei, ZTE, and Tic Tok for no reason. No matter how willing these companies are to cooperate with the US, the US still has to ban them. Is this the capitalist free market?
US do the worst than shooting people in the head, what about launching wars, toppling governments, taking prisoners from foreign lands and treating them worst than animals.? Get your facts straight
Awesome to have an awesome filmmaker who is a Christian
I wonder why she hardly touch on the impact of political impact on CCP?
👍👍👍
Typical of CCP propaganda - show-off playing traditional Chinese instruments ahead of an economic forum - never seen such a programme before
I agree with Keyu and thinking a truly independent judicial system is needed for a just and fair China.
Amazing Dr Jin, great style in your delivery, we need more of this!!
Very cheezy
Don't be fooled. The communist China is the common enemy of all humanity. This is just another propaganda for China.
Obviously Dr. Jin is working abroad for the Chinese state propaganda bureau. What she is trying to mantain so hard is the foreign strategic propaganda campaign, backed from Beijin. China is doing so good, China is the most this or that, and all the stuff we all know about this mouthpieces who are living abroad spreading Chinese false data to deceive foreign governments, companies, investor groups and other strategic targets that are crucial for China's economy to survive. Chinese economy is still pretty bad and the gap between the wealthy and the poor is getting bigger and bigger. China's economy is desperately begging for foreign money, foreign expertise, foreign innovations and foreign technological and social improvements as it has been doing for the last four decades. There is a gigantic real estate debt bubble crisis, a Government running out of money due its poorly designed short term plans, its bad economic management of foreign capital, by overspend in unnecessary and absurd mega projects and infrastructure for Domestic Government Performance Projection, shortages to get to their political goals and promises. Resulting in countless failures and humans lives in the process. Then she comes with "The New China Playbook" also not true, like all popular great five years plans from the CCP that always ended with catastrophic consequences for Chinese people, from the infamous Big Leap Forward which pushed tens of millions of chinese to death from starvation, going through the Common Prosperity which has make the poor even more poor and the rich richer than before, to the wonderful Zero Covid Policy which has induce millions of chinese people into a bunch of mental illness due the draconian lock downs carried out for months or even over a year. What she said is an absolute nonsense that doesn't goes with the reality of China. mostly because It's well known that the Chinese Goverrnment has been conducting an agressive campaign on Chinese businesses, specially on privet enterprises and entrepeneurs for years. Dismantling totally or partially their structures and financial assets. The economy in China is still a Estate Planned Economy it has never changed or "shifted" as this Dr. Jin says. Anything or anyone that gets big enough to the eyes of the Chinese Government is in fact Estate owned.
Great woman! Thank you for your wiseness
Wisdom
dictator capitalism
人朝气蓬勃,国家就蒸蒸日上,什么lism都一样;人不行了,国家就不行了,什么lism也没用。
Clearly Dr. Jin is a loudspeaker for the communoist china, a part of propaganda machine. She is ignoring what's going on in China and Hong Kong. She is part of the CCP elite with vested interest.
She has been too positive on China and totally ignore the drastic changes brought by Xi who totally ruined the growth brought by Deng’s reforms.
Very good lecture! Congratulations!
哇
什么资本主义社会主义,羊头狗肉馆一个。封建中央集权专制融合金融资本主义=有中国特色社会主义
Shame on you! You liars to cheat here and there! You’re not my countryman
Shame on you! You liars to cheat here and there!
Mushrooms spring up from a desert? Really?!
She is from the CCP ruling class
When did Taiwan slip out from China? How did China lose Taiwan? Why USA and UN say the truth? Without the truth it is causing China to be jealous and greedy and thus about to rape Taiwan.
She is a nun like I am the Archangel Michael.She is an open heretic!
She mentioned about the help from mainland China to Hong Kong in 2003 after SARS. As a mid-age Hong Kong people, I can remember that clearly. However, many young Hong Kong people do not know or cannot remember that. They only see the shortcomings of some some tourists from mainland China, blaming mainland money pushing prices up.
Impressive work to the organizers.
you people literally invade tibet and talk about we china don;t support
Jin Keyu is an English-speaking concubine, who speaks high of her master.
Dr. Jin , please note that Hong Kong is not a country. It is a special economic region and part of China.
Xi Jing Ping is a dictator and is reversing the peaceful, successful course taken by Deng Xiao Ping. He has even promised unlimited partnership with Russia's Putin who invaded Ukraine and threatened the world order. All that Keyu Jin says is nothing but a smokescreen.
We know we are different from western. That is why we need to thanks to Dr Jin, who gives a frank and proud speech about the country and makes communication possible.
Thanks for sharing it!!! ❤
Kara reminds me of a goyisha Fran Liebowitz. Or a base 10 Rebecca Solnit. I appreciate her voice during this time and that she’s standing up for justice against an age old brutality in a a new tech bro cape means everything. Great job Tane, with this lively guest! We’ll miss you here but can’t wait for what is next!
wow! she described the current economic situation in China as a recession!
Economic investigator Frank G Melbourne Australia is following this informative content cheers Frank 😊
The Chinese economy needs 'a lot more market and a lot less government '?!? Why???
The fairy tale of meritocracy in CCP. In reality, it is more like horse races, you have to bet well.
Thank you Dr. Thomas for this enlightening lecture. I wish I heard it when we sang that song quite a few times in the old Tally choir many years ago.
Well done!
Dr. Nadine Harris, I wonder if yu can get this information to Kenya, caning in schools was banned but continues unabated. Teachers have a field day in this criminal misdemeanor.
China: Socialism and Capitalism and medieval evil sides combined.
Stop hiring any Chinese propaganda agent in your institute please, don't push any Chinese Communist propaganda garbage to me please! I could even teach the real Chinese Communist Party's history if you'd like to listen to me!
