Peace activist, artist and poet Genesis Be is busy. She has a book out titled “People, Not Things: Love Poems and Paintings for Humanity.” She recently curated the Freedom Rising Art Show in Brooklyn, New York, featuring work by incarcerated artists. She is the Artist in Residence at Middle Collegiate Church in Manhattan and participated in the church’s annual conference, “Freedom Rising”, which focused on the 2024 elections, threats to democracy, and collective empowerment.
Genesis Be is also the subject of the upcoming film “Mississippi Turning” from @Moral_Courage and @Breakout Films, about the successful years-long effort to remove the Confederate symbol from the state’s flag.
In this episode, @GenesisBe joins co-hosts @LauraFlanders and @RevJacquiLewis, the Senior Minister for Public Theology and Transformation at @MiddleChurch. In a time of division, how do we create a sense of collective freedom? Hear how “Freedom Rising”, art, civil discourse and more helps us break down barriers, connect with each other and advance liberation. | Posted on 04/Jun/2024 00:30:24
