Closer Look Juneteenth Special: What is Freedom?


Listen Later

On today's edition of "Closer Look with Rose Scott," we continue our weeklong Juneteenth series. For our annual Juneteenth event at the Atlanta History Center, Rose asks “What is Freedom?” and talks with panelists about the progress of Black Americans since 1865. Guests reflect on the triumphs and challenges that Black people have faced in the past and present in the pursuit of freedom in all aspects of their lives. They also discuss what freedom means to each of them. We also have a live performance from rapper Question ATL.

 

Guests include:

 

Kim Addie, the vice president of strategy & impact at the Atlanta Black Wealth Initiative

 

Illya Davis, a philosophy professor at Morehouse College and the director of New Students & Transition Programs

 

Dr. Jane Morgan, a cardiologist and the executive director of health and community education and the executive director of the Covid Task Force at the Piedmont Healthcare Corporation

 

Jaycee Holmes, the director of Curriculum & Instruction at The CodeHouse

 

Ernest Holmes, president and founder of The CodeHouse
