CWRU-Siegal Lifelong Learning

Course Description

AFRICOBRA (African Commune of Bad Relevant Artists) helped transform the way that Black artists saw themselves and the societies in which they lived and worked. This program will use illustrated slide presentations, excerpts from oral history interviews, and commentary from artists and social historians to facilitate a discussion about the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s and beyond as seen through the work of Wadsworth Jarrell, Jae Jarrell, and Nelson Stevens.
