"Ben and Jamesa have risen to the top as the go-to conversation curators about racism. They are the epitome of choosing courage over comfort by intentionally and openly discussing uncomfortable issues. They normalize the necessity for self-reflection by utilizing the curiosity and compassion to see one another, hear one another, and ultimately nurture our souls to thirst for growth and positive change. One of their legacies to the world will be as fearless agitators to dismantle systemic discrimination and racism. Ben and Jamesa help us to maintain hope that change is possible and can be achieved if we commit ourselves to create a world led by diversity, equity, and inclusion of humanity."
