On Mourning, Possibility, and Black Education in the Right Now
Dr. Chezare A. Warren
The Black Possibility as Creative Praxis series examines how Black creative practices disrupt violent anti-Black patterns in educational contexts. Drawing inspiration from the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s-70s, we explore how Black cultural production serves as a powerful tool for healing, resistance, and reimagining education in the face of challenges such as anti-DEI legislation and book bans. Our discussions will center on how Black creativity fosters life-affirming, equitable experiences for students and communities, opening pathways for transformative possibilities in education and beyond.
