This afternoon's discussion will center around the basic tenants of post-colonial Black New World thought that is currently reshaping the cultural landscape of the planet. This first installment is called Sanctified Gumbo. Marcel Diallo will be accompanied by longtime Black Dot Artists Collective percussionist Kele Nitoto for the demonstrative segment of the afternoon.
