Georgia State’s Rialto Center for the Arts, GSUTV, the Creative Media Industries Institute (CMII) and the Narrating Justice Project have introduced “Crucial Conversations,” a statewide TV series of civil, nonpartisan discussions addressing racial equity and reconciliation.
The next episode of “Crucial Conversations” will air on GPB Channel 8.3 and Comcast/XFINITY Channel 246 at 8 p.m. on Sunday Oct. 11, with rebroadcasts at 11 p.m. and on Wednesday Oct. 14, at 8 p.m. and 11 p.m. The episode will also be available on YouTube @RialtoCenter.
When work on this concept began in fall 2019 as a collaboration of the Rialto Center, GSUTV, CMII and the Narrating Justice Project, the team envisioned racial equity, reconciliation and solutions as a primary area of discussion aimed at the Georgia State community, its Atlanta neighbors and the nation.
