Rarely do we get to hear the stories and pathways of those who’ve chosen many forms of activism and advocacy.  Some, like Chikesia Clemons, were forced to this place. Her assault by police at a Waffle House in Saraland, AL was caught on film and went viral.  Afterward, she chose to take a stand and has used protest, media and art to tell her story.  Others choose this work.  Poet Cleo Wade is known worldwide for her positive and compelling messages. She has taken her work to women’s prisons and the New York Times Bestseller list, encouraging people to stay strong in long battles for freedom.  How does one choose to exhibit their personal power in the collective work of shifting societal power? And how does one remain brave, courageous, and consistent in that fight, no matter how they choose to engage?

Guests: Chikesia Clemons, Activist and police assault survivor, and Cleo Wade, Poet, Author and Advocate
