Organized by the Museum of Modern Art as part of Reconstructions: Architecture and Blackness in America.
BRC members Sekou Cooke, J. Yolande Daniels, Felecia Davis, and Mario Gooden in conversation with Justin Garrett Moore and Peggy Shepard, moderated by Ifeoma Ebo.
How do we reckon with the past to create a future? Who tells the history of your neighborhood? How do we attain spatial justice? This discussion will expand and explore questions raised in the exhibition Reconstructions: Architecture and Blackness in America by inviting the panelists and audience members to consider their positions, choices, and personal and collective power in working to protect and create Black urban spaces. This event is moderated by Ifeoma Ebo and is planned in collaboration with the BlackSpace Urbanist Collective. Audiences are encouraged read BlackSpace’s manifesto in advance of the event.
