“Rural people are every bit as deserving of art as any other group, and maybe more so, because they don't have as much access to it,” jazz musician Sam Miltich tells @JeffreyBrown to.pbs.org/2Kcy0ax

A look at how youth are engaged in the arts at #racsummit because they have a great capacity to get involved. So where are we getting stuck? Question asked, and power dynamics come up in this presentation. "Youth understand power." What does it mean to engage youth?
