Fahrenheit 2024 (w/Junauda Petrus & Nathan Horowitz) [ART CLASS Re-Release]

Originally aired January 16, 2024.What's up, Classmates?! Class is officially in session! Welcome to the first episode of ART CLASS, a provocative, thoughtful and often humorous podcast all about art and artists creating at the intersection of beauty and innovation. This week, hosts Lee Bynum, Paige Reynolds, and Rocky Jones are joined by author, activist, and multi-disciplinary artist Junauda Petrus, whose novel The Stars and the Blackness Between Them, has appeared on multiple banned books lists in the past few years. We talk art and censorship, other influential, inspirational artists who have also showed up on banned book lists, and how Junauda's West Indian ancestry influences her life and work. Later, we're joined for "Career Day" by Nathan Horowitz, who gives us behind-the-scenes peek at a day in the life of a Hollywood stunt performer. Plus, contributor Emilia Mettenbrink brings us the "Morning Announcements," a list of live and virtual arts offerings that we think you might want to check out. And, as always, we end with a moment of PBJ aka Pure Black Joy, a weekly little snack for your soul that highlights the Black people, culture, and art that are making us happy this week. Let's do it to it, y'all.Hosts: Lee Bynum, Rocky Jones, Paige ReynoldsGuests: Junauda Petrus, Nathan HorowitzContributor: Emilia MettenbrinkProducer: Rocky Jones--LinksJunauda Petrus (Website) (Instagram)The Black Joy Project by Kleaver Cruz (HarperCollins)Legacy of Orisha Series by Tomi Adeyemi (MacMillan)--Hey hey, THE SCORE is now on social!
