12 Jun “On Race, Art and Everything in Between” – Part 2 – Artist Interview and Musical Showcase with Humanitarian and Musician Lisa Ramey (Ep. 15)
EPISODE SUMMARY
Breaking Distance continues our special series addressing the police brutality and widespread systemic racism representing historical and current sources of trauma in communities of color. We decided to go back to our communities of artists and thought leaders and have started a special #BreakingDistance Podcast series discussing Race Relations, political activism and the role of the arts and communication in healing; the second episode in this series features singer, songwriter and activist Lisa Ramey. This is our response to our current civil rights crisis, the collective trauma caused by inequality and violence, and processing our emotions throughout. Evolution is the ongoing process of change. If we want to consciously and intentionally change our social systems, we need to talk together about it. The more inclusive, wise and productive our conversations are, the more powerful and positive the changes will be. – The Role of Conversation in Evolution (The Co-Intelligence Institute)
