About the event: Last year, we lost two titans––Assata Shakur and Miss Major Griffin-Gracy––whose revolutionary activism paved the way for countless of us to be here today. Their lives, legacies, and leadership are testaments to the radical Black feminist imagination, praxis, and possibilities and their movement building has and continues to inspire countless around the world. This event honors and uplifts the spirits of both Assata and Miss Major as both a celebration and commemoration of their immense love for us––for their immense love for our people.
The event will feature remarks from: Clarissa Brooks, Faris Cuchi Gezahegn, Rachel Domond, Malina Eaglin, Fatima Jamal, Jiya Pinder, Nala Simone Toussaint, and Stephanie Younger.
This event is a part of our new teach-in series, "Notes on the Radical Black Feminist Imagination”, which focuses on the radical Black feminist imagination as an aegis of possibility, panacea, revival, survival, reckoning, and becoming.
