Police, Empathy & Uptown Funk!
You may remember that I hosted six police officers from Virginia who had done an amazing “Uptown Funk” lip sync dance that went super viral. They produced this engaging musical number with the entire police department to reflect their diversity, empathy, and community engagement.
We are honored to interview Sgt. William Pickering from the Norfolk Police Department during our Empathy Concert & Perspectives on Friday, June 12th from 4 pm to 5 pm EDT. We will discuss their culture and community approach during the Racial Injustice protests in Norfolk. Sgt. Pickering and our co-hosts will explore the approaches to policing with empathy and connections.
In addition, we have Broadway performers Celisse Henderson (Godspell & Concert Tours), Ali Ewoldt, and my co-host Telly Leung, with perspectives and songs for this powerful and uplifting hour. And, we will honor Cyndi Lauper’s True Colors United.
This is our 11th weekly virtual gathering as the learning and business community focuses on Racial Injustice, the Pandemic, and Economic Challenges. Reserve a space:
