On the planet, there is a need to heal race-linked wounds, particularly anti-black race-linked wounds that stem from systemic racism. It is well known and chronicled that anti-black race-linked wounds are embedded in cultural scripts and societal practices and have been inflicted historically on enslaved people of African descent in the United States, as well as on darker complexion people globally. More specifically, Black men more often have been the targets for many of the inhumane acts exhibited by those who consciously or unconsciously created and/or maintain systemic racism.
Systemic racism, grounded in patriarchy and colonial attitudes, mirrors numerous and harmful institutional “shackles” that Black men have had to deal with and overcome over the years. The purpose of these series of sessions, then, is to bring together a number of Black men, with varied voices, to share their stories about how they have tapped into their own unique talents and structured creative journeys to make a difference at individual and collective levels.
Through a five-day series, the intent is to have conversations among Black men from various walks of life to share their views on the effects of systemic racism in regard to: (1) self-definition and self-determination; (2) personal, societal, and/or global challenges and resilience; (3) finding one’s passion to make a difference; (4) educational journeys; and (5) creative visions for the future. These topical areas for conversations are simply lens through which to view personal, societal, and global race-linked issues and dynamics, as well as lived experiences, and therefore may have similarities, differences, and/or overlaps as the conversations unfold.
