Lifesaving Conversations

Streaming on Liberatum

Conversations about the coronavirus pandemic, racial justice, human rights, and gun control are brought to the fore by Liberatum, a cultural foundation that pairs boldfaced names with “the real heroes”—those on the frontlines of today’s major issues. See Sharon Stone’s talk with Doctor Hevali Kelli, a Syrian refugee and now one of the first Kurdish-American cardiologists in the history of the U.S.; Michael Douglas with former African child soldier Ishmael Beah, now an author and activist; and Zoe Saldana with Navajo doctor Michelle Tom, discussing the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on the Native American community. Episodes take place across five continents. —J.V.
