Black Future Tings: Honoring Our Resilience
In recognition of Black History Month, join Caribbean Equality Project for the 2nd annual "Black Future Tings: Honoring Our Resilience" on Saturday, February 25, 2023, at Brooklyn Community Pride Center- Crown Heights, Little Caribbean Brooklyn! The event features panel discussions, cultural performances, a film screening, and a networking reception.
Three years into a decade defined by colliding pandemics, increasing political and social fracture, environmental crises, and rapid technological advancements, communities everywhere are repositioning themselves through specificity, emerging identities, and politics.
The purpose of Black Future Tings is to center the past and present radical imagination of the most consistently marginalized people in our communities and manifest a future of unprecedented liberation for all. The theme of our sophomore edition of Black Future Tings is Resilience, as we honor the ways in which communities throughout the African diaspora have demonstrated the capacity to rebound and rebuild time and time again in the face of harm and destruction. We understand that this demonstrated resilience–and in particular that which has been visibilized by Queer and Trans bodies within the diaspora–will continue to play a critical role in unlocking the full liberation of Black people.
Event Date & Time: Saturday, February 25, from 1 pm to 3 pm
Event Location: Brooklyn Community Pride Center- 1561 Bedford Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11225
