Berny Jacques and Geston Pierre of "Berny + Geston: the Frenemies" will discuss multiple current social issues from the Democratic and Republican perspectives.
Both children of Haitian immigrants, childhood friends Berny Jacques and Geston Pierre don’t agree on much politically—except that they both love our country, and respect each other. They'll tackle some of the most controversial issues of our time, and (at least so far) they'll wrap the evening still friends. We think you'll be inspired by the power of sharing ideas across differences, and you might just make a new frenemy of your own. Refreshments will be provided.
