Protest, Women and Performance



“From Nina Simone to Flo Kennedy, from natural hair to the politics of soul, Black women’s art and activism transformed the terms of American culture and the terrain of Black politics in the Black Power era. Sherie Randolph, Tanisha Ford and Ruth Feldstein will join us for an important conversation looking at how African American women used their voices, their style, their art, and their law books to insist on liberation as Black women and demand justice of American society.” – Jeanne Theoharis
