Here in the second part of my talk with Jennifer Sanford we talk about art’s role in politics and directing the public’s attention to important issues. I also yell a lot about Meaghan Markle. But I think it’s an interesting juxtaposition. The media has the power to make any story a focal point. Add on the wide reaching power of social media without any research or citation and we have a recipe for polarization. We have left it to the listener and reader to filter this information for themselves. I don’t know if that’s going so well. Can we shape this into a discussion about collective growth? Is there an opportunity to harness this information to bring about unity instead of division? What do we need? More education? More represntation? More activism? Perhaps simply more critical thinking. Let’s check in with Jenn to hear her thoughts on some of these pieces.
