Description: On May 19, 2020, Wynton Marsalis sat down for a wide-ranging virtual conversation with Bryan Stevenson of the Equal Justice Initiative to discuss the value of art in understanding the identity of our country. Stevenson specifically delves into the #BlackExcellence that inspires him to honor the resilience of Black artists such as Mahalia Jackson, Dizzy Gillespie, and Louis Armstrong, as each endured humiliation but remained brilliant and genius. Jazz at Lincoln Center thanks Bryan Stevenson and the Equal Justice Initiative and proudly acknowledges the support of Gregory Annenberg Weingarten, GRoW @ Annenberg.
