About this Event
This workshop puts Beyoncé in conversation with James Baldwin as Black artists and creators who explore their relationship to and identification with America. Participants and facilitators will examine media from Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter tour where the artist reckons with popular imagery and conceptualizations of “Country music” and engage with an essay from Baldwin’s body of work reflecting his experiences as a queer, Black expatriate. Through reflection and conversation, we explore the roles of our love and anger in the struggle for justice.
