For #AYSHour - I did something a little different, I took a usually private conversation, public.

We talk to our good friend Rachel Aschalew (@queen_rara) about the importance of understanding this moment in time *isn’t a trend* and what our role is in all of this.

I also want to thank Rachel for opening up about a traumatic private experience - we appreciate your voice and story and all of your incredible work!

If you want to support Rachel’s work with Urban Arts Partnership ! If you’re in New York, find out how you can get involved as a mentor or volunteer!
