Episode Synopsis

During our limited series Public Comments, we’re building an artist-centered narrative about the Title VI complaint process that got artists their money back here in Nashville, while exposing discriminatory funding practices. In this twelfth episode, our guest is Sangeetha Ekambaram, a multidisciplinary artist born with a curiosity to explore the world and strong desire to sing and dance. We discuss finding the path forward through artist empowerment and community-building.This show (originally 12 episodes, now with a bonus 13th episode forthcoming) is an archive and roadmap as we continue advocating for the equitable arts funding our city deserves. Support provided by Columbia University’s Incite Institute Assembling Voices fellowship.Hosted by Lydia Yousief and Christine Hall. Intro: Sangeetha Ekambaram, Cortney Warner, Kenny Rae, Alayna Renae, and Tim Northern. An Arts Equity Nashville production
