ROOTED RECAP | Culture is Not For Sale and Other Musings on the Met

from Well Rooted · host Haneen Jarrar| SWANA Creatives & Entrepreneurs

This week we're doing a quick recap on the Oligarch Gala: who showed up, why it's embarrassing, and why money and power do not translate to cultural currency and relevence. We're also shining a light on one of our previous guests, Sylwia Nazzal, and sharing why we want to see here-plus more Arab artists-celebrated at future (hopefully less problematic) Met Gala carpets. Catch up on Sylwia's episode down below!   Listen to Sylwia's episode HERE Watch Sylwia's episode HERE Follow us on Instagram HERE
