鈥淎 concert of amazing performers belting up a storm or being hilarious, combined with information on how every person watching, can help this national crisis is my idea of a perfect evening,鈥� says Rudetsky.
Wesley adds, 鈥淪eth and I feel that the best way to achieve social justice is through art. We are also honored to announce that Dr. Colleen Kraft, the immediate past president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, will be joining us at Royce Hall to discuss the continuing crisis at our southern border and her informed medical opinion that 鈥榚ven short periods of detention can cause psychological trauma and long-term mental health risks for children鈥� and 鈥榯he effects can be long-lasting鈥�.鈥�
