Radical Reasoning: Blackness, Creativity & Subjectivity

Friday 29th November, 1pm

 

Join us for another Radical Reasoning where we will be discussing several materials related to the theme Blackness, Creativity & Subjectivity. Specifically, the three materials provide a commentary on creativity as a form of liberation, emancipation, and political change. We ask attendees to consider the chosen materials, however, we welcome anyone who is interested, regardless of the extent you have engaged with the materials. The discussion will be guided by your thoughts and opinions, however, we will also come prepared with prompts to spark conversation.
