The Art of Justice: Articulating an Ethos and Aesthetic of the Movement

THE ART OF JUSTICE

Articulating an Ethos and Aesthetic of the Movement

With a particular focus on the Black and Nuyorican Arts Movements, The Art of Justice conference will present  the ideas and aesthetics of these earlier movements honoring and guided by the first hand voices documenting their actual experiences. Themes include the universality of the struggle for justice and the art that served it, the continuity of the struggle with other similar movements, the celebration of historic activists, and the reassessment of current movements. There will be an emphasis on group discussion and audience participation.
