Join us for an unapologetic look at the “master” narratives performed as the official full story. With discussion, film and music, we dismantle specious rationalizations used to obstruct, limit and omit crucial self liberation archives. Following our Not Juneteenth and Not 4th of July critiques, this program also champions analyses of regularly accepted and approved historiography. Colonialism, Confederacy and antebellum oligarchy will not do in the face of genuine Escape, Rebellion and Freedom—self determination. “African Americans… need a new story--a story that would take us beyond the dignity-sapping narrative of slavery and colonialism…” Carl Anthony
