How do people of wealth leverage their status to advance social justice?  How can we use the power of storytelling to shift social and economic paradigms? Join Abigail Disney in a candid conversation about her Disney heritage, the power of creativity, and how she leverages her identities as filmmaker, philanthropist and activist to uplift peace and justice.
