As a community where racial and cultural connections are consciously uplifted, Busboys and Poets has become the place for politics. President Obama himself has enjoyed the collision of art and culture that Busboys and Poets is known for.Â
Instead of a sterile studio, OZY chose to broadcast live at Busboys and Poets — on OZY.com, WIRED.com and Facebook. You'll hear from some of the most interesting thinkers, politicos, entertainers, musicians and comedians. Don't worry, you'll still get the results real time ... But you'll have a lot more fun along the way.
Why OZY? OZY is the place to get smarter, sooner. OZY MAGAZINE readers learned about rising political stars Tulsi Gabbard and Nikki Haley months before they caught the attention of The New York Times and The Economist readers, along with dozens of up-and-comers who have yet to be discovered by the mass media. OZY TV watchers learned critical lessons from campaigns past in THE CONTENDERS — 16 FOR '16 a documentary series. And OZY Fest-goers devoured ideas from Karl Rove, Cory Booker, Malcolm Gladwell, the Broad City girls and this month's issue with a feature focus on critical hurdles that will define humanity in the years ahead.
Why WIRED? Just ask President Obama, who chose to guest-edit this month's issue with a feature focus on critical hurdles that will define humanity in the years ahead.
Seating is first come, first serve. Â See you on Election day!
