February 1, 1947, marks a significant moment in Hartford’s history, as the city prepares to host the Connecticut InterGroup Exposition at the WTHT auditorium in the heart of the city. This groundbreaking event brings together 35 national agencies to tackle the sensitive issue of intergroup relations, a topic that has been simmering just beneath the surface of the city’s diverse communities. In an era where racial tensions are running high, the exposition promises to be a much-needed catalyst for change.
