About the event
About the Event:
This dynamic celebration of Black Miami’s art, culture, and public intellectualism begins with the exhibition closing of Christopher Mitchell’s Nou Souke Ansanm: Haiti 15 Years After the Quake, a powerful photo display reflecting on Haiti's 2010 earthquake. Then engage in a conversation with Monica Sorelle, Desmond Meade, and Valencia Gunder as they discuss Black Miami’s desire and despair amid the redevelopment of the Magic City. Afterwards, unwind at our Party on the Patio.
