Study

We practice Black Study. The seminar is designed to engage the field of Black Studies while continually being mindful of the benefits and limits of the institutionalization of the field. This means we are generous in our interpretations of Black life and its study. Here, we move through art and scholarship at various frequencies in nuanced and attentive way.
