In Search of Black Power
In Search of Black Power challenges conventional narratives around Black policy, Black movements, and Black Life. We focus on creating a new language to discuss the issues presenting Black America, with a focus on independent institutional building and seeing Black folks as the solutions to our own problems.

Gun Violence Prevention: Black Studies vs. The Academic Epstein Class
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We show African-centered concepts used by on the ground violence prevention workers that are grounded in a Black Studies tradition and show how theorists like Steven Pinker, who have ties to Jeffrey Epstein, present racist theories on violence that impact violence prevention work. We conclude by presenting Cheikh Anta Diop’s Southern Cradle theory as an alternative place to center violence prevention work.
