Afrofuturism Fridays
KHEPRW INSTITUTESecond Fridays, 6-8PM
Afrofuturism is a movement of art, culture, and literature that seeks to explore dilemmas faced by black people and theorize possible futures. Afrofuturism will be our framework to re-examine events of the past, critique the present-day dilemmas of the African Diaspora, and create a space to imagine and dream of possible futures.
Join us on the Second Friday of each month from 6 to 8 pm. As always, there will be food, music, and a celebration of the community.
