DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nSarah Jones performances include many characters. Bella is a 
 African-American feminist.  Habiba Rahal is a Muslim professor of 
 comparative literature. Lorraine Levine is an older woman.  Ms. Lady is 
 poor, homeless and disabled. Joseph Mancuso is Italian-American police 
 officer.  Praveen Mandvi is Indian-American human rights worker.  Rashid is 
 a hip hop artist.\n\n"I hope what I do is portray people as honestly as I 
 can. I try not to strip away what's actually there." - Sarah 
 Jones\n\n\n\n\nIranian-American comedian and actor Maz Jobrani describes 
 his role in challenging stereotypes of Middle Eastern Muslims in 
 America.\n"When casting directors find out you're of Middle Eastern 
 descent, they go, 'Oh, you're Iranian. Great. Can you say 'I will kill you 
 in the name of Allah?'" — Maz Jobrani\n\nArtist Hetain Patel plays with 
 race, identity, language and accent to challenges us to think beyond 
 surface appearances.\n"This is my art. I strive for authenticity, even if 
 it comes in a shape that we might not usually expect" — Hetain 
 Patel\n\n\n\n\nEducator and poet Jamila Lyiscott shows the three distinct 
 flavors of English that she speaks with her friends, family, and 
 colleagues.\n\nPsychologist Paul Bloom explains why prejudice is natural, 
 rational and even moral.  The key is to understand why we depend on it, and 
 recognize when it leads us astray.\n"Stereotypes are often rational and 
 useful, but sometimes they're irrational, they give wrong answers and other 
 times they lead to plainly immoral consequences." — Paul Bloom\nSource: 
 TED Radio Hour: Playing With Perceptions\n\n\nShaka SenghorMoving Beyond 
 Murder\n\n"I refused to leave prison, or die in prison, trapped in this 
 animalistic state. And I would do whatever was necessary to reclaim the 
 parts of me that I knew were good." - Shaka Senghor\n\nAt the age of 19, 
 Shaka Senghor was jailed for shooting and killing a man. That event started 
 his years-long journey to redemption.  While serving his sentence for 
 second-degree murder, Shaka discovered redemption and responsibility 
 through literature and his own writing.\n\nAfter his release, Shaka reached 
 out to young men following in his footsteps. Senghor collaborated with the 
 MIT Media Lab to imagine creative solutions for the problems in distressed 
 communities. \nSource: TED Radio Hour: How Can Someone Move Beyond 
 Murder?\n\n\nJames BevelNonviolence In Action\n\nAn interview of James
