What does the Black body look like in zero gravity?

This October 7-8 at lincolncenter, artist kambuiolujimi invites you to "North Star: Conversations on Boundlessness," a two-day symposium inciting provocations at the boundaries of science and art. 

Over the last four years, Olujimi has worked on a transmedia project entitled "North Star" that recontextualizes sites of blackness and Black bodies within history, science, and contemporary art. North Star subverts notions of a Black body constructed from the "inescapable" gravity of oppression and instead explores the innate state of Black Rhapsody. 
 
Join a 🌟 lineup of leading artists, scholars, and scientists; performances by poets, musicians, and dancers; and the world premiere screening of Olujimi's film "North of Never." Link in bio for full lineup:
