PBS TOUR 2011 Message from Tavis Smiley www.tavistalks.com www.tavistalks.com Welcome to “Tavis Smiley: Changing the World One Conversation at a Time.” It’s hard to believe that 2011 is my 20th year in broadcasting! To celebrate this milestone, I wanted to travel the country to visit and do what I enjoy most: engage in dialogue with Americans of every race, culture, preference and ideology. It is my hope that our conversation today will enlighten, encourage, empower and inspire you as we continue on our quest to make America as good as its promise.
