mezzanine_118.jpg.fit.750x422 (1)We are excited to share our partnership with PBS to capture the reactions from “AMERICA AFTER FERGUSON” — a PBS television special moderated by Gwen Ifill.

This PBS town hall meeting, moderated by PBS NEWSHOUR co-anchor and managing editor Gwen Ifill, explores the many issues brought into public discourse in the wake of Michael Brown’s death in Ferguson, Missouri.

It is such a special treat to work with my dear friend Gwen on this project. She is the perfect person to navigate a deep conversation through difficult terrain.
