(Charles) Jermaine Jones on the Ghetto
from Black Artistry: Inspiration Recrafted · host Florence2
I discuss From Poverty to Prosperity: A Ghetto Exit Strategy as a Rite of Passage, with the author (Charles) Jermaine Jones. Jermaine flew over from his home in DC to London for the event, which was in front of a live studio audience at New Beacon Books (North London) as part of its 60th anniversary celebrations. The event was a success: it was informative, there was laughter, but also tears as Jermaine shared with us some life-changing decisions taken by people close to him. As I wanted to leave enough time for Q& As, we only discussed the topics that came out of From Poverty to Prosperity. In a second episode, we will discuss one of Jermaine's artistic inspirations.
