why rooh recommends attending
At rooh, we believe in the power of conversations that shift how we see ourselves and the world.
This event brings together two voices rooted in courage and clarity. Angela Davis’s life teaches us how to stand firm in freedom and justice. Hilton Als helps us understand our culture with imagination and complexity.
Together, their dialogue is more than an evening; it’s a living archive of resistance, beauty, and possibility. If you value voices that inspire both thought and compassion, this conversation is a rare opportunity to be present with leaders who remind us what is at stake and what we can learn to become.
