SUMMARY:Fall 2020 | Black Mobility and Safety in the US Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, ACT is co-sponsoring a lecture series as part of MAS.S63 | Black Mobility and Safety in the US I\, a new course taught by Ekene Ijeoma\, Director of the Poetic Justice Group at the MIT Media Lab. \nIn this seminar and studio\, Ijeoma will guide students to listen\, learn\, reflect and respond to issues around mobility (physical\, mental\, socio-economical\, political\, etc) and safety for Black Americans through words\, images\, and sounds that reference social science and anti-racist research. Weekly meetings will be organized around public lectures from guests ranging from designers and urban planners to activists and social scientists\, and private individual presentations for the group. \nPart of a two-semester course\, Black Mobility and Safety in the US is organized into two-week topics around living while Black. The first semester (Fall 2020) will include: birthing\, breathing\, sleeping\, eating\, and walking; the second: learning\, voting\, driving\, working\, and loving. By the end of each semester\, students will have the resources and tools to actively listen and respond critically to issues of Black mobility in the context of their own fields and their purposes. \nSeptember 8\nHank Willis Thomas and Hugh Hayden | Black Progress \nSeptember 15\nArline T.
