Netflix | Rustin Class x Own Your Power Ft. Durand Bernarr & FESCH.TV:

In the Netflix film Rustin, Executive Produced by Barack and Michelle Obama, we learn the story of how Bayard Rustin, a Black and openly queer civil rights activist and right hand to MLK, Jr., planned the historic March on Washington which was the largest march demonstration in US history. Beyond his legacy, the movie showcases the human side to him as well and how he fully owned his power by proudly leaning into all of his intersections, and during a time where it wasn’t accepted publicly.

Rustin’s impact and legacy can be felt today with modern day Rustin’s – who we are deeming The Rustin Class – affecting change in culture, industries, fashion, music and more by leading with intentionality, making change within their field and owning their power. We gathered some of today’s top culture shifters to watch the film, and then have a discussion around these themes and dig into how they blend their personal experiences.
