Start Here: Sound and Fury
Our experience of our spatial environment will never be the same after these timely interventions by Liz Ogbu and Maria Gaspar. The Indignant Women Collective treats us to a dramatic reading of an imagined meeting between poets Gwendolyn Brooks and Lorraine Hansberry. Kenyatta Forbes engages us directly in her unusual new card game Trading Races. And Damon Locks and the Black Monuments Ensemble toss genre boundaries out the window in a riveting concert.
