“With events in Ferguson and the Eric Garner decision, we can give ourselves permission to be honest with our students. It also provides an opportunity for an honest conversation about how long change takes. In the end, besides bringing ourselves as artists, we’re bringing ourselves as human beings.”
-Stephanie Jones, Summer Institute 2014
