BlackLight Summit & Gibney's Black Diaspora: Empty Chairs, Empty Tables: Waking the Absence with Pathways to Grief & Grieving • LIVESTREAM
"When the dream was slaughtered and all that love and labor seemed to have come to nothing, we scattered... We knew where we had been, what we tried to do, who had cracked, gone mad, died, or been murdered around us... Not everything is lost. Responsibility cannot be lost, it can only be abdicated. If one refuses abdication, one begins again." –James Baldwin
About the Event
