Common

Common, a multi-award-winning performer, author, and activist, has achieved success in many facets of his life and career, from music to acting to writing. But for a long time, he didn’t feel that he had found fulfillment in his body and spirit. In And Then We Rise: A Guide to Loving and Taking Care of Self, he shares a comprehensive program for addressing mental and physical health and encouraging communities to do the same.
Common will be in conversation with Clint Smith, a staff writer at The Atlantic and the author of the New York Times bestsellers How the Word is Passed and Above Ground.
