Going Dark

Join us for the launch of Dark Opacities Lab, a hub for BIPOC political and aesthetic study and strategy at Concordia University. “Going Dark” will center an expansive and experimental dialoguing with scholars, activists, and practitioners from across Turtle Island who work at the nexus of race, empire, carcerality, and anti-colonial visual cultures.

How can you participate? Join us in person or online by registering for the Zoom Meeting or watching live on YouTube.
