Exploring Black Rest in Black Music

  Register for Event   Center for Black Visual Culture A continuation of the Black Rest Project at the Center for Black Visual Culture, we present the Rest in Black Music Panel! Featuring Jake Goldbas, Dr. Fredara Hadley, Rich Medina, and Dr. Mark Anthony Neal moderated by Dr. Kwami Coleman, this panel interrogates the critical role Black music plays in facilitating the act of rest for Black bodies, and will explore how "the rest" and "the break" in music function as facilitators of reprieve and revival. Please join us at 20 Cooper Square, Room 101 for an insightful discussion with our distinguished panel of musicians, artists and scholars. Whether you're already familiar or just curious, this event will leave you with a new appreciation for the power of Black music and the act of rest as a resistant and liberatory practice. We look forward to seeing you! Date:  March 6th, 2024 Time: ...
