And so thankful to be learning from Dr. Gail Christopher about how we can all move across divides and toward one another — in thoughtful and healing ways. Dr. Christopher was the driving force behind the W.K. Kellogg Foundation’s Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation efforts.

Thanks to Matt Wake and @aldotcom for the detailed write-up of the evening! Among our favorite lines: “Eloquently playing a nylon string guitar, Howard’s vocals exploring deep soul expressionism anyone with a heartbeat could feel. Wow. Just wow.” al.com/life/2024/08/j…

@JohnArchibald We heartily endorse your Mount Rushmore — all already are (or will be this year, in Roy’s case) Alabama Humanities Fellows, too. They all challenge us to consider what it means to be human — and to SEE each other as fully human, too.
