Listen "Erika Ewing: Fashioning Change"
Episode Synopsis
"When we're talking about the power of The Arts -- the healing, the transformative powers -- we're really talking about the fact that we're human. We're humanizing the experience of others. So, we lead with empathy, and we lead in such a way that we put ourselves in someone else's shoes. It's more than meeting people for where they are --it's BEING where they are. It's getting inside of where they are . . . I can see new possibilities. NOW what can I do to change things?"Erika Lucille Ewing is a social impact entrepreneur and a multimedia creative, actor, activist, and fashion designer, "ARTIVIST." As former Chief of Staff of Black Lives Matter Greater NY Erika, she organized the Find Our Girls March to bring attention to the missing Black and Brown youth across the globe. In 2018, Erika combined her creativity, engagement, and activism skills and launched Got To Stop LLC.
