ICYMI: Tune in to last week's virtual talk by award-winning journalists Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, co-creators of "Tightrope: Americans Reaching for Hope." In a conversation moderated by Eric Liu of @citizenuniversity, the co-authors expand on themes from their book that inspired our current online exhibition, including how heartbreak and hope across America has been magnified during the pandemic, and the importance of job creation, social integration across society, and epiphanies of empathy in our communities. View on YouTube via our link in bio.
