Reimagining the World Together: A Conversation with Bree Newsome Bass and Gina Newsome Duncan

'This conversation in the Reimagining the World Together series brings together two sisters who also consider each other friends. Bree Newsome Bass is an artist, activist and public speaker. She is an organizer in the modern civil rights movement and has helped develop several non-profit and grassroots organizations. In 2015, she attracted national attention when she scaled a flagpole at South Carolina’s capitol building to remove the Confederate battle flag in protest of systemic racism following the racially-motivated murders at Emanuel AME in Charleston. Dr. Gina Newsome Duncan is an adult psychiatrist and psychotherapist in private practice in Charlotte, NC. A writer, speaker, and consultant, she is actively engaged in faith- and community-based efforts to reduce disparities in health and achievement by leveraging positive, strengths-based approaches that promote overall wellness and build resilience. Moderated by Anne-Maria Makhulu.'
