The next Community Living Room will take place on Thursday, June 26th at 5:30 PM at Nafasi on Centre, 2145 Centre Avenue. This session, titled “Black Freedom Struggles: A Fighting Legacy,” continues the journey we began in our last gathering, where we examined the historical fight for Black electoral justice, the enduring power of the Black vote, and the challenges of remaining politically engaged within a system shaped by compromise and constraint.
Together, we reflected on what it means to vote in what Saidiya Hartman calls the afterlife of slavery, and asked how we might sharpen our political consciousness amid limited choices. This upcoming conversation will broaden that lens by tracing the legacy of Black freedom fighters in Pittsburgh and beyond, and asking what their example demands of us now.
Join neighbors, artists, and thinkers as we build on that foundation and imagine new possibilities for solidarity and collective power.
