The first episode I produced as a member of “The United States of Anxiety” team! It’s all about the sounds, history and significance of Juneteenth and Black liberation during the ongoing racial reckoning. Photo is mine as well from Curl Fest 2018 in Brooklyn, NY.
ROLE: Producer; Editor; Photographer
Juneteenth marks a triumphant moment for not just Black Americans, but all people who have sought liberation globally. On June 19th, Kai Wright hosted a special episode of “The Brian Lehrer Show” with a series of conversations about the history of the national holiday, classical music and Black politics - then and now.
