oUR IMPACTFUL JOURNEY:

Navigating an era of transformation


In the early 1920s, during the formation of Robert's Deliberating Club, the country was undergoing significant social changes and grappling with various challenges. Racial segregation was prevalent, and the Ku Klux Klan's presence in Youngstown during that time posed threats to the African American community. In adversity, visionary individuals recognized the importance of intellectual growth, community empowerment, and fostering dialogue. Thus, Robert's Deliberating Club emerged as a platform dedicated to thoughtful discussions, community service, and striving for a more inclusive future.
