The panel will engage youth and community leaders in candid, compelling conversations about the ways that race and democracy are being redefined in our national culture. Targeting the hip-hop generation that helped build early support for America's first Black president, this panel will debate the extent to which young Americans have opened a new chapter in American race relations.
The panel will feature Lisa Fager Bediako, founder of Industry Ears, Inc.; Joan Morgan, an award winning author and journalist; Jabari Asim, editor, The Crisis; and MC Serch, host of The White Rapper Show.
