On this episode of CrossStreets, we recorded a remote interview via Skype with our friend Nick George about the importance of listening, why good readers make good writers and letting your voice be heard in Central Virginia and beyond. Nick is the founder and executive director of The Listening Inc, a performing arts community in Lynchburg, VA which aims to engage, change and save lives with the performing arts. In 2018, the Listening Inc. partnered with a local college in Lynchburg to create a Freedom School.

Make It Happen

Cross Streets is a podcast about race, culture and soul care. We are friends living in Brooklyn with a passion for empowering people and a collective mission for racial justice and community healing. By sharing and discussing the stories of our friends and neighbors in our community, we hope to promote the possibility of authentic cultural exchange between people of different races.
