In the fourth season of "Stories from the Rio Grande," the local nonprofit Village in the Valley shares how it was created and its missions to "[elevate] and [unite] the Black community while connecting cultures in the Rio Grande Valley." Through this virtual platform, MOSTHistory will use the terms African American and Black interchangeably.

In this episode, Matthew Pollock discusses how he became part of the grassroots effort to establish the Village in the Valley organization--and teaching his children to become multicultural.
