Show Don’t Tell: Describing Life with Kevin Quashie and Christina Sharpe

This roundtable will seek to address itself to “black life” through descriptions of its particulars—bringing together several scholars of black life with several objects that, in part, index that life. Ranging broadly across the expressive terrain of black art, poetry, and thought, this roundtable will present some small demonstration of the various ways we might address ourselves to the aliveness that lives in representations of life, without disregarding the wake of historical emergence that radiates from them.  

Presented by BSC Dissertation Writing Fellow, Jared Robinson
