Named one of the top 10 Latina actresses to watch by Variety magazine, Diane Guerrero draws from her personal and professional experiences to inspire audiences that success is possible—no matter the obstacles in your way.

Diane Guerrero was just 14 when her parents were detained and deported. Born in the U.S., she was able to remain in the country and continue her education, depending on the kindness of family friends who took her in and helped her build a life and a successful acting career. She recounts her story in her memoir, “In The Country We Love,” a moving, heartbreaking story of one woman's extraordinary resilience in the face of the nightmarish struggles of undocumented residents in this country.

Diane has, from an early age, had an affinity for the arts. After graduating high school, she received a degree in political science and communication; however, she quickly realized her passion lay in performance art, and moved to New York to pursue her dreams. Diane subsequently appeared on numerous television series and is best known for her roles as “Maritza Ramos” on the Emmy- and Golden Globe-nominated Netflix series “Orange Is The New Black” (for which she received three Screen Actors Guild awards) and as Lina in CW's break-out hit, “Jane The Virgin.” She recently wrapped a co-lead in the Sony/CBS pilot “Distefano,” from the creators of “How I Met Your Mother.”

In 2015, Diane was nominated by President Obama to be a White House Ambassador for Citizenship and Naturalization. She is an outspoken advocate for common sense, comprehensive immigration reform and has worked with Immigrant Legal Resource Center and Mi Familia Vota, a nonpartisan Latino civic engagement organization to promote citizenship and voter registration.

In The Country We Love: My Family Divided
Diane Guerrero, the television actress from the megahit “Orange is the New Black” and “Jane the Virgin,” was just 14 years old on the day her parents were detained and deported while she was at school. Born in the U.S., Diane was able to remain in the country and continue her education, depending on the kindness of family friends who took her in and helped her build a life and a successful acting career for herself, without the support system of her family.

“In the Country We Love” is a moving, heartbreaking story of one woman's extraordinary resilience in the face of the nightmarish struggles of undocumented residents in this country. There are over 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the US, many of whom have citizen children, whose lives here are just as precarious, and whose stories haven't been told. Written with best-selling author Michelle Burford, this memoir is a tale of personal triumph that also casts a much-needed light on the fears that haunt the daily existence of families like the author's and on a system that fails them over and over.

Tarana Burke, founder of the ‘me too.’ Movement, encourages audiences to use the power of empathy to bring change in our world. Looking back 10 years after the movement started, she seeks to bring dignity and humanity to sexual violence survivors with her message.

Tarana, a civil rights activist from the Bronx, started the ‘me too.’ Movement in 2006, when she laid out an action plan to reach out to survivors of sexual abuse. More than 10 years later, Tarana reflects on the power of empathy – and how it can unite survivors to fight back.

\"We owe future generations nothing less than a world free of sexual violence,\" she says. \"I believe we can build that world.\"

A survivor of sexual assault herself, Tarana made it her mission early on to work with young women of color to change their lives. Burke developed the nonprofit \"Just Be\" in 2003, which was an all-girls program for young black girls aged 12 to 18.

Tarana became a vocal spokeswoman for the ‘me too.’ Movement, when #MeToo took on a life of its own, as survivors of sexual violence stepped forward to tell their stories on social media. Time magazine dubbed Tarana and other me-too activists “the silence breakers,” naming them (as a group) Time Person of the Year for 2017.

Tarana writes about the movement’s beginnings in her upcoming book Where the Light Enters: The Founding of the ‘me too.’ Movement and contributed to the book How We Fight White Supremacy. She is the Senior Director at Girls for Gender Equity in Brooklyn. Tarana teaches workshops to schools, workplaces, and places of worship. Tarana received the 2018 Prize for Courage from The Ridenhour Prizes, an honor for those who demonstrate courageous defense of the public interest and passionate commitment.

'me too.' Movement
Tarana speaks about the origins of the ‘me too.’ Movement and the premise - that the power of empathy is key to survivor’s healing - that it is built on. She talks candidly about why sexual violence is so rampant in our culture and talks about concrete ways that every day citizens can interrupt it. Her talk is a call to action that is meant to inspire and motivate all who are affected by sexual violence- which is everyone.

Nyle DiMarco, winner of Dancing with the Stars and America’s Next Top Model, empowers audiences to believe they can do and be anything they want in life, no matter the obstacle.

He won the mirror ball trophy on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars (season 22) and was the last model standing on The CW’s America’s Next Top Model (cycle 22), now Nyle is winning over audiences as an influential leader and ambassador for the deaf community. Born into a multigenerational deaf family, he is an honorary spokesperson for Language Equality and Acquisition for Deaf Kids (LEAD-K) and founder of the Nyle DiMarco Foundation, which works to improve the lives of deaf people around the world. Nyle has produced the 2018 return to Broadway of Children of a Lesser God starring Joshua Jackson and Lauren Ridloff. Nyle was also a creative collaborator on The ASL App, created by native deaf signers to teach conversational American Sign Language.

\n\n

With a passion for language, literacy and advocacy within the deaf community and beyond, Nyle shares his barrier-breaking story as a deaf man who has risen above stereotypes to take the world by storm. Believing that his deafness is “an asset rather than a limitation,” he builds a bridge between the deaf and hearing by shining a light on not only the struggles, but also the triumphs of the deaf culture. Above all, Nyle shows audiences that with a sense of community, commitment to your goals, and belief in yourself, you can accomplish anything.

Justin Baldoni is an actor, director, producer, entrepreneur, and changemaker whose efforts are focused on creating impactful media and entertainment. His most notable role is “Rafael” on The CW’s award-winning phenomenon, Jane the Virgin.
In 2012, he created and directed My Last Days, an uplifting documentary series about life as told by courageous people living with a terminal illness. The series was recognized by the Television Academy Honors as one of the most powerful and impactful television shows of 2018 that inspired social change.
Baldoni made his feature film directorial debut in March 2019 with FIVE FEET APART. The film centers around two cystic fibrosis patients who fall in love but aren’t allowed to have physical contact with each other due to their medical conditions. Baldoni also produced the film, which was released by CBS Films and Lionsgate; It went on to become CBS Films’ third highest grossing film of all time. FIVE FEET APART grossed over $90 million worldwide crushing all box office predictions thanks to an emotional, heart-warming story and tremendous word of mouth. The film was nominated for several awards including a People’s Choice Awards nomination for “Drama Movie of 2019” and a Teen Choice Awards nomination for “Choice Drama Movie.” Baldoni had the idea to turn the script into a book, which then went on to become a New York Times bestseller.
His next project, Warner Bros. CLOUDS, based on the book Fly a Little Higher by Laura Sobiech, will be released in 2020.
In 2013, Justin co-founded Wayfarer Entertainment —a cause-driven media studio focused on creating content that highlights inspiration, unity, and the power of human connection. Through this platform, he created the dinner conversation series, Man . Enough, which dives into traditional masculinity while focusing on topics like body image, relationships, and fatherhood.
He is the founder and chairman of The Wayfarer Foundation — a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming the way communities see and respond to the needs of people experiencing homelessness by creating unique experiences that bring people together and uplift, empower and enhance the lives of our unhoused neighbors. Every January, the Foundation puts on the Carnival of Love, which provides connection, services, and resources to people who are experiencing homelessness in LA’s Skid Row community. The Foundations 6,000+ volunteers have served over 15,000 guests, providing them access to over 100 service partners annually.

Ice-T not only invented gangster rap, he lived it. He is the embodiment of LA Hip-Hop, an actor, and a cultural icon.
\n\n
Through his music, his books, and his lecture tours of America’s prisons, high schools, libraries, and colleges (including Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford), Ice-T has become an influential spokesman for America’s youth, regardless of color.
\n\n
Born in New Jersey, Ice-T quickly learned the art of survival. An only child, his parents died when he was very young, and he became involved in Los Angeles gangs before spending four years in the army. His first break came when the producers of the film Breakin’ asked him to rap in the movie. He went on to become rap music’s original gangster, writing songs like Six in the Mornin’ and New Jack Hustler.
\n\n
Ice-T formed Rhyme Syndicate Records in 1989 and released a string of groundbreaking West Coast rap records. He subsequently formed the thrash-metal band Body Count with high-school friend and guitarist Ernie C. Their 1991 self-titled debut contained the controversial single Cop Killer. Body Count was the most critically acclaimed act on the highly successful 1991 Lollapalooza tour and continues to tour worldwide.
\n\n
As his politics were grabbing headlines, Ice-T’s film career was taking off with roles in New Jack City, Ricochet, Trespass, and Johnny Mnemonic, all while building a flourishing television career. Ice-T continues his 20-year run starring in NBC’s Law & Order: Special Victims Unit as Detective Odafin Tutuola. For three seasons in 2012/2013 Ice and his wife, Coco starred in the E! reality show Ice Loves Coco.

Aly Raisman, team captain of the gold medal winning U.S. Olympic Women’s Gymnastics teams in 2012 and 2016, is the second most decorated American gymnast of all-time with six total Olympic medals.
The most decorated U.S. gymnast at the 2012 Games, Raisman captured the hearts of millions as she became the first American gymnast to win gold in the floor exercise. One of only two U.S. gymnasts to make back-to-back Olympic teams in more than 15 years, she helped guide the team to gold and landed a silver medal performance in the All-Around competition at the 2016 Games.
A leader on and off the floor, Raisman uses her platform to promote positive body image and encourages everyone to be comfortable and confident in their own skin. In her New York Times best-selling memoir, – Fierce – she shares the highs and lows of her journey, including her survival of sexual abuse. Inspired by an army of survivors, Raisman continues her advocacy for systematic changes within the sport of gymnastics and efforts to help to eradicate sexual abuse in youth sports.

As a leading political strategist, Symone D. Sanders draws on her experience to share insights about social justice, diversity, and the ongoing political scene in the U.S. Symone has made a name for herself as senior campaign advisor for leading progressive politicians.
Symone challenges audiences on the conventional wisdom that strong communities depend on total unanimity and accord to thrive. Instead, she argues that diversity and debate can create healthy, sustainable social movements. Symone brings attention to the issue of juvenile justice reform while providing a millennial’s perspective to debates about government policy.
She emerged onto the Democratic political scene at 25, when she became the national press secretary for the 2016 presidential campaign of U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders. That accomplishment made her the youngest presidential press secretary on record. Symone has joined the 2020 presidential campaign of former Vice President Joe Biden as a senior advisor.
Symone started in progressive politics early in life; at age 16 she impressed former President Bill Clinton with her speech introducing him at a luncheon. The former president later mentioned Sanders in his book Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World.
Symone is the past chair of the Coalition for Juvenile Justice’s Emerging Leaders Committee and former member of the Federal Advisory Committee on Juvenile Justice. She is the principal of the 360 Group, LLC., which consults for organizations, businesses, individuals, campaigns, and candidates.
2016 became a year of influence for Symone. She was honored by Fusion as one of 30 women under 30 who will influence the 2016 elections and named one of 16 young Americans shaping the 2016 election by Rolling Stone. Symone has been featured on NPR, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, FOX News, and ABC. She has been profiled in the Washington Post, Essence Magazine, Black Enterprise, Cosmopolitan, and ELLE. She served as a Resident Fellow at Harvard’s Institute of Politics at the Kennedy School in the Spring of 2018. Sanders was also selected to serve as one of USC Dornsife's 2019 Fellows. Her upcoming book, No, You Shut Up: Speaking Truth to Power and Reclaiming America, will be released in May of 2020.

Iconic activist Angela Davis has made it her mission to share her life story and challenge her audiences to join the struggle for racial, economic, and gender justice.
\n\n
Angela has been deeply involved in some of the major social movements over the last 50 years. She was born and raised in Birmingham, Ala., by parents who were active community organizers. As a teenager, she marched and picketed against racial segregation. Angela went on earn a doctorate in philosophy. She became known as a radical feminist and activist, a member of the Communist Party USA, and an associate of the Black Panther Party.
\n\n
Angela’s outspoken ways made her a focal point of criticism. Her Communist ties led then-California Governor Ronald Reagan in 1969 to try to bar her from teaching at any California university. The attempt failed; she is now professor emerita at the University of California, Santa Cruz, in its History of Consciousness Department.
\n\n
Angela became the center of a firestorm in the 70s, when she was prosecuted for three capital felonies, including conspiracy to murder, but was acquitted. The charges stemmed from Angela’s purchase of weapons for her personal bodyguards; these guards in turn used the guns for a hostage takeover of a California courtroom. Four people were killed in the ensuing gunfight. Angela became a fugitive and was listed on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitive List.
\n\n
During the 1980s, she was twice a candidate for Vice President with the Community Party. She left the party in 1991.
\n\n
Angela has campaigned for social justice – particularly with what she calls the “prison industrial complex” that has grown since the 80s with the emergence of the private-prison industry. She is one of the founders of Critical Resistance, a national grassroots organization fighting for changes in the prison system. Her books include Are Prisons Obsolete and Abolition Democracy: Beyond Prisons, Torture, and Empire.
\n\n
Angela writes and frequently speaks as part of her mission to build engaged communities that seek to reform the U.S. prison system. She urges her audience to “hone their critical skills, develop them and implement them\" while fighting for racial, economic and gender justice.

Fueled by deep-rooted social, economic and cultural issues stemming from decades of tense race relations and powered by the pervasive presence of social media, Black Lives Matter has rapidly evolved from a Twitter hashtag into this generation’s civil rights movement.
Since the hashtag was started in 2013 by Opal Tometi, Alicia Garza and Patrisse Cullors in response to the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, the impassioned message has seamlessly shifted from the internet into the streets and the mainstream, while maintaining its online clout and widespread allure. Emblazoned across t-shirts, protest banners and news headlines, #BlackLivesMatter has turned attention to the troubling disconnect between law enforcement and the black community, driving nationwide protests on a scale not seen in a half-century.
Rooted in a quest for liberation, the movement’s powerful message has connected people across the country working to end the various forms of injustice. Seen as a fundamental means to an essential end, the movement strives to transform society into a world where the lives and contributions of all individuals are recognized equally. A galvanizing movement from the onset, it has gained powerful momentum in the wake of the shootings of Michael Brown and John Crawford III and the death of Eric Garner; after a grand jury cleared the officer charged in Garner's case, #BlackLivesMatter was tweeted 13,000 times in one hour.
With a vision of justice for all, the Black Lives Matter founders engage audiences in discussion about race relations in America and how their activism from the fringes became the national movement it is today, galvanizing individuals to stand up and together against the state violence, police brutality and social injustice plaguing our country.

The War on Youth
In the last 50 years, America's youth have been increasingly marginalized in society. Dr. Marc Lamont Hill says we've replaced a language of love, when talking about our youth, with one of blame. America has inflicted injunctions on gangs, legislation against baggy pants and attacks on rap music, all leading to the propaganda that today's youth are worse than young generations before them. Hill wants to combat the misconceptions plaguing today's youth with an acknowledgement that, as integral to American society's fabric, they are rich with resources rather than social burdens.
Building Community in an Hour of Chaos
