Black Dimensions: History, Science, Literature, Spirit

Join a conversation exploring the history, science, literature, and spirit of Black excellence. Author Bertrand Bickersteth discusses his new work on the Afrofuturism of Black Cowboys, tracing their often-overlooked presence on the Prairies and recovering untold parts of Alberta’s history. He is joined by writers Uchechukwu Peter Umezurike, Samantha Jones, and Wakefield Brewster, whose work exemplifies these diverse dimensions. The discussion is moderated by Sue-Shane Tsomondo. Open to all ages, this in-person event offers a thoughtful look at how art and narrative can highlight overlooked histories.
