Time, Memory, and Justice in Marginalized Communities

A workshop exploring the relationship between justice, linear time constructs, and notions of the future in marginalized communities. Through exercises and discussion, participants will consider alternative temporalities embodied by Afrofuturism and its use as practical tools for shaping past and future narratives in communities. Presenters will provide examples from their socially engaged art, and community archive project exploring housing, histories, and futurities in North Philadelphia.
