SUMMARY:Presentation: "The Underground Railroad as Afrofuturism: Exploring New Galaxies in the Outer Spaces of Slavery"
DESCRIPTION:Description: This lecture employs the lens of Afrofuturism to address new dimensions of the Underground Railroad\, detailing what imagination\, tact\, and technology\, it took for fugitive Blacks to flee to the “outer spaces of slavery.” The talk addresses the intersections of race\, technology\, and liberation by retroactively applying a modern concept to dynamic historical Black moments. Special attention will be paid to runaways in Central and Western New York that fled to Canada\, as well as Harriet Tubman\, and Frederick Douglass. \nThe lecture will be held in the Cayuga Museum’s Carriage House Theater\, with the presenter attending virtually. \n*ASL services provided by Interpretek\, with grant funding thanks to the National Park Foundation  \nPresenter bio: dann j.

SUMMARY:The Music of Freedom - Presentation & Performance

Ambre Dromgoole (Cornell University) and Khyle Wooten (Ithaca College) will contribute their performative and scholarly expertise to analyzing and showcasing the sonic\, cultural\, and political significance of Black music genres from folk and concertized spirituals to blues\, gospel\, and jazz. The Music of Freedom is a voyage through the artistic legacy of the Black liberatory tradition. \nLearn More
