Program Description
St. Louis County Library’s Black History Celebration Presents
An Evening with Veteran News Correspondent Deborah Roberts
Author of “Sisters Loved and Treasured: Stories of Unbreakable Bonds”
Presented in Partnership with Ameren - 2026 Black History Celebration Presenting Sponsor
Veteran ABC News correspondent and 20/20 co-anchor, Deborah Roberts shares a celebration of sisterhood, featuring more than 50 personal stories by Viola Davis, Jenna Bush Hager, Octavia Spencer, and many more. Beacons of support, understanding, and love, sisters are there for us through it all. But how often do we step back from our busy lives to acknowledge what they truly mean to us? In “Sisters Loved and Treasured,” Roberts curates a collection of conversations, meditations, and anecdotes from her own sisters, celebrity friends and everyday people alike who share deeply personal accounts of how their relationships as sisters shaped their lives.
This event is open to the public, but Forum members will receive special seating and an opportunity to meet Deborah Roberts in the VIP meet-and-greet line.
Doors open at 5:00 p.m.

Program Description
This bus tour visits historic neighborhoods throughout both north and south St. Louis, exploring the evolution of 20th-century racial divides, how they were perpetuated, and how they affect us all today. The past and present are illustrated through themes of disinvestment, housing vacancy, white flight, and more in neighborhoods such as Dutchtown, Benton Park, Mill Creek Valley, St. Louis Place, and The Ville. In exploring this complex topic, guides will provide space for dialogue and reflection throughout this meaningful experience.
