“She said, ‘They’re not really Black.’ I said… ‘Oh really?’”
Instead of clapping back, Sarah Crowell told a story—and changed the room.
In this episode, visionary artist and cultural strategist Sarah Crowell joins me to talk about the power of storytelling, the politics of belonging, and what it really means to lead creatively in a world that wants to put us in boxes.
We talk about how she dared to be a creative thought leader as an artist, and how Sarah uses movement—both literal and cultural—to create change within movements.
🎧 This one’s for the visionaries, the creatives, the boundary-pushers who know art isn’t just expression—it’s direction.
