Racial divides — in St. Louis, the arts community and the nation — were the focus Wednesday night as artists gathered at the St. Louis Regional Arts Commission (RAC) to talk about Michael Brown’s death.
RAC held the gathering for artists to process the week’s events in Ferguson and discuss how artists can address their role in the public dialogue about it.
“…even as tensions remained high, an unidentified poet reiterated a feeling prevalent in the room that ‘above all, artists can do something.’ “
