The African Diaspora has a shared struggle to live free from violence and colonization. Centuries of unrelenting exploitation and harm require a substantive conversation on reparative acts from state and corporate entities, which have contributed to this violence and accumulated massive capital and economic gain. This conversation will seek to explore the efforts to redress these harms and expand the discourse around what reparative relief looks like in our current context.
About the Kehinde Wiley Speaker Series
This event is part of the Kehinde Wiley Speaker Series, developed in collaboration with Pastor Mike McBride and Sherrie Deans of Live Free USA. This six-part series brings together some of the biggest names in culture, art, sports, and activism. Through panels, performances, and collective healing practices, this series offers a platform to those most impacted by state-sanctioned violence and offers a constructive framework for understanding the intersections of art, suffering, and healing.
