Artist Lavett Ballard joins host Sydney Cella for a new addition of A Community Affair. Ballard discusses her exhibit, "The People Who Could Fly", which will be showcased at Rowan University in May and much more.   
Pulling from themes of flight, freedom, and ancestral connection, The People Who Could Fly references the African American folklore of the same name, which tells the story of enslaved individuals who were believed to have the ability to fly, symbolizing a deep spiritual connection to freedom and transcendence. Through her work, Ballard re-imagines these powerful narratives, creating a visual language that honors both the past and the ongoing struggles for liberation.
