Jazz musician Etienne Charles explores the effects of climate change on vulnerable communities. We are excited about his appearance as the Ford School of Public Policy’s annual Martin Luther King Day speaker on January 17.

Through his Earth Tones project, Charles is shining a light on the effects of climate change on some of the world’s most vulnerable communities. His multimedia performances with UMS will show his artistic and creative expression. This discussion will sample a taste of that creativity, and probe his journey – physical and intellectual – to arriving at the concept, followed by moderated questions from the audience.
