Two generations of social activists discuss the legacy of Gregory Peck, famously known for many films including his role as Atticus Finch in To Kill A Mockingbird. His son Carey and grandson Chris take us behind the scenes and talk about what inspired Gregory to take on Harper Lee's pivotal character, as well as powerful and controversial roles in other classic films dealing with antisemitism and also addressing the pain of war.
Both Carey and Chris discuss their important work, as well. They are passionate about being a resource to disempowered communities and are committed to facilitating ways for people to make changes in their lives.
Here are some of the great books Chris recommended in today's episode...
