At least eight of the candidates for Louisville mayor will take part in a forum Tuesday night, sponsored by ten local social justice organizations.Chris Hartman with the Fairness Campaign says the event begins at 6:00pm at the Metro United Way Building at 334 East Broadway."Each of the ten co-sponsoring organizations has pre-sumitted one question that they'd like the candidate to answer based on the social justice issue on which the organization works. And then the audience will also have the opportunity to submit questions and we will ask a few of those as well," he said.Other sponsors include the ACLU of Kentucky, Kentuckians for the Commonwealth and Women in Transition.The event is free and open to the public.
