On this very special Season 1 finale of Artful Accessibility, shared with you on Juneteenth weekend, host Chloé Duplessis sits down with her mother, Carolyn Jones Sullivan, for a deeply personal and powerful conversation.
This episode highlights Carolyn's multifaceted journey as a visually impaired artist, historian, and civil rights pioneer.
Carolyn also shares about her connection to the historic Modern Beauty Shop, a birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement in North Louisiana and the inspiration for her celebrated stage play Beauty & The Ballot Box.
Recurring themes of faith, family, and resilience are layered throughout the conversation, and serve an offering of encouragement for anyone navigating a challenging season.
The episode concludes with a heartfelt tribute to Chloé's grandmother, Leslie Jones, and a beautiful hymn sung by Carolyn.
