More-than-Perfect: Explorations of Black T/Senses of the Future hosts artists, scholars, educators, and activists in a series of conversations that explore and speculate how black radical thinking and imagining can support critical understanding and generative political responses to this recent resurgence of liberalism’s authoritarian streak.

Key to this program is that it creates a generative space for collaborations and conversations around which is a crucial aspect of our project: the cultivation of an image of existence, a world not premised on the kind of political violence that has marked the trajectory of black and indigenous populations in modern history and is epitomized by the authoritarian regimes.

This  three-year project will gather Miami and New York-based black artists, scholars, educators, and activists as well as others from North America, Latin America and the Caribbean who have been engaged in the creation or recuperation or recollection of images, words, ideas, objects, and projects towards a world where black subjugation, all forms of violence against black persons and in black territories are not naturalized and/or met with indifference. Through in person and online hybrid events, the program’s fellows and residents will share and learn about social subjugation as well as critical, creative, and emancipatory black mobilization across the western hemisphere. The program seminars and study group sessions will be recorded and made available through the online platform EhChO.
