Since then, the movement has gone beyond viral, changing the dynamic of contemporary politics, evolving the conversation around race in America and inspiring generations of activist like Darnell Moore. Moore is an award-winning author, activist and advocate for justice. In his new memoir [“No Ashes in the Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America,”]( Moore shares the journey taken by that scared, bullied teenager who not only survived but found his calling. He recently sat down with Salon’s studio to discuss his book, the power of Black Lives Matter and the evolution of the movement. “The movement for Black Lives should be expected to morph. There are a lot of arguments with people saying it’s no longer here, but organizers are always working,” Moore said. “Organizers are being very strategic, organizing around the particular issues of the moment, so there are a lot of folks doing work around electoral politics, policy roundtables that hone on specific policies that need to be overturned and doing work in communities, organizing at the ground.” Watch the full video above to learn more about how Darnell Moore’s take on activism and what change looks like. And check out the [full interview]( to hear how Moore wrestled with his identity growing up as a queer black man.

Watch this exclusive clip from the documentary “Nowhere to Hide” above from Kurdish-Norwegian filmmaker Zaradasht Ahmed. In 2011, Ahmed returned to his birth country, heading into one of the world’s most dangerous areas, the “Triangle of Death” in central Iraq. As American troops withdrew, he followed nurse Nori Sharif and his family over five years as they navigated a war-torn country where a power vacuum left citizens vulnerable to a new, menacing force: ISIS. The film has won international awards, including Best Feature Length Documentary at IDFA, Best Documentary at the One World Human Rights Festival, the Nestor Almendros Prize for courage in filmmaking at the Human Rights Watch Film Festival, and several other awards at film festivals. “Nowhere to Hide” has its national broadcast and streaming debut on the PBS documentary series POV and pov.org on Monday, August 27, 2018, at 10 p.m. ET (check local listings).

Pioneering a music genre blend dubbed "TrapHouseJazz," which he coined at the age of 15, the artist performs a completely reimagined version of his song “Queen Tings.” Recently, Masego played a live set for “Salon Stage” where he performed popular records of his. He produced on the spot, whipped out his saxophone when needed and crooned, his voice both intoxicating and mesmerizing. However, Masego's music is not just in conversation with the many instruments he plays or with the genres — like Trap music, House music and Jazz — of which he's most inspired by. Masego's culture and upbringing is also deeply influential. He is the product of Jamaican parents; his early musical exposure came from the church and he was raised in Virginia, from the area that produced musical icons like Pharrell, Missy Elliott and Clipse. Despite Masego's popularity and collaboration with some of music's brightest like GoldLink, SiR, and DJ Jazzy Jeff, he hasn't released a debut album yet. But that's all about to change, as his 13-track debut titled "Lady Lady" will arrive Sept. 7. And that's not all. Masego will also head on the road with Leon Bridges and then headline his own tour this fall. Watch the video above to experience Masego's unique sounds in his completely reimagined version of “Queen Tings” and to hear the young musician speak about why he makes music and the journey his songs take over time.

They surround you, knock you to the ground and taunt you by calling you gay, all before pouring gasoline on you and trying to spark a lighter. This is exactly what happened to leading Black Lives Matter activist and writer Darnell Moore when he was 14, in Camden, New Jersey –– and that wouldn’t be the first or last time he almost lost his life because of vicious homophobia and being a young black man in America. Recently Moore stopped by “Salon Talks” to share this story, his growth and explain to us why he forgave the young men who attacked him. “I really don’t believe in the disposing of black people,” Moore told SalonTV’s D. Watkins. “I really don’t believe in doing to each other what the system has done to us, and I don’t believe that punishment and carceral tools are avenues for transformation.” Now Darnell Moore is an award-winning author, activist and advocate for justice. In his new memoir [“No Ashes in the Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America,”]( Moore shares the journey taken by that scared, bullied teenager who not only survived but found his calling. He sat down with me in Salon's studio to discuss his book, forgiveness, freedom and radical black love. Watch the video above to learn more about how Darnell Moore learned to forgive in life. And check out the [full interview]( to hear how Moore wrestled with his identity growing up as a queer black man.
