It Shall Be Jubilee: Art & The Soul of Black folkThis panel examines Afrofuturism and Afro-Nostalgia as sites of promise. We’ll discuss Black art as an inextricable aspect of the Black soul and Black soul as the exuberance of Our collective experience. In the words of Dubois, the Black artist is a cultural worker and “this, then, is the end of his striving: to be a co-worker in the kingdom of culture” and that creativity allows us to “escape both death and isolation” to create a shared future and authentic Black spaces where our memory can be free.
This panel is part of the Jubilee Day Festival taking place on Sunday, June 16 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Ohio History Center and Village. Featured activities will include historical interpretations, storytelling and dance.
At 3:45 p.m. in the Ohio History Center—following a spoken word performance by Cynthia Amoah—Urban Art Space's Dr. Terron Banner will host a panel discussion featuring Arris' Cohen, Iyana Hill, Christopher Hearn, and Ajanaé Dawkins.
