I first met Sekou Coleman nearly a decade ago when he co-led the Asheville Writers in the Schools program. I since got to know him as a neighborhood activist. Only recently did I learn of his deep background as a documentary filmmaker.
At the top of this episode is a clip from a film Sekou is working on documenting the life and Asheville impact of John R. Hayes. That’s the impetus for today’s conversation for the See Hear podcast. Sekou and I get into Asheville’s social and political fabric at the time of Hayes’ work in Black Asheville and the legacy Sekou is working to keep alive. Sekou is in the final stages of editing the film.

Your Backyard, All Four Seasons
Most backyards get about 90 good days a year. Yours could get 365.
Think about the moments you keep postponing "until summer": the birthday dinner outside, the Sunday morning coffee, the late-night talks with friends. A Hansø pergola stops the waiting.
Adjustable louvers let you chase the sun or shut out the rain. The structure is built from T6 aerospace-grade aluminum and engineered for up to 167 mph winds and up to 65 PSF snow load, so it's still standing strong when the weather isn't.
Early Bird Offers LAST CHANCE: save up to 40% on pergolas, plus a $1,000 installation voucher*, a Free Hansø ProCheck Care™ 10-Year Plan worth $950, and some FREE accessories to keep fall and winter evenings cozy.
Most pergolas are just for summer. Yours is for every season.
