S E1325: In Class with Carr, Ep. 324: Black Space / Black Place / Black Pace

The U.S. Memorial Day weekend is often described as the unofficial beginning of summer. Amid mounting regional and global challenges to U.S. power, intensifying US white nationalist politics, and the approach of federal Semiquincentennial celebrations, questions of memory, governance and collective identity take on renewed urgency. This week’s In Class With Carr continues our long-term project of thinking about ourselves and the world through an Africana Studies lens by asking what it means to remember Black spaces in a moment of watershed social transition. From HBCUs seeking position in intensifying data center interventions to the continuing meaning and relevance of Black towns, Black self-determination, Black political organizing and the politics of commemoration, we consider how cultural memory, movement work, and Governance intersect. How do we protect and extend Black spaces? What stories connect us across time and place? How might deepening cultural memory, collective Ways of Knowing, and organized action help create social arrangements capable of serving the needs of all?
