Wanda's Picks Special

from Wanda's Picks · host Wanda Sabir

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay! Scholars Cheryl Finley, Ph.D. and Leigh Raiford, Ph.D., join us to talk about "Blackness & Belonging at BAMPFA, Dr. Finley's book, "Committed to Memory: The Art of the Slave Ship Icon", the Year of Return and the 400th Anniversary of the first enslaved Africans landing at Ft. Comfort, Virginia, August 1619.  http://tobtr.com/s/11372745
