The Shockoe Institute in Richmond, Virginia, recently welcomed visitors with a mission to expand understanding of the lasting impact of slavery and foster civic solutions. The initiative was spotlighted by Amna Nawaz as part of the Art in Action series, an exploration of the mutual influence of art and democracy, featured in PBS’s CANVAS coverage.
Amna Nawaz co-anchors and co-manages PBS News Hour, sharing insights into how art initiatives like those at the Shockoe Institute can contribute to societal evolution.
Anne Azzi Davenport, the Senior Producer of CANVAS at PBS News Hour, collaborates in bringing these stories to the forefront, emphasizing the role of creative expression in public discourse.
