The Black-Indigenous/Afro-Indigenous Experience, as part of their Black Lives Matter webinar series, will examine the relationships between black and Native cultural identities, notions of community recognition, artistic practice and activism. Audiences will have the opportunity to explore the work of these artists, culture bearers and activists who, through their practices, act as catalyzing agents in our communities and challenge legacies of colonial disempowerment. The artists will reflect upon their roles as leaders in an era of the Black Lives Matter movement during a time of great social and political turmoil. Click here for webinar registration and details.
