Black Masculinity and the Style of Resistance

Globally, black people are among the most influential trendsetters in music and fashion.

Like music and other forms of black cultural production, personal style and fashion are forms of expression and creativity that are often politically charged. An intergenerational panel, representing a wide range of fields includingacademia, fashion, art, and social justice, will engage with the idea of personal style to interrogate constructions of black masculinity, investigate ideas of male identity in the contemporary landscape, and consider black male resistance in a discussion about what it means to represent oneself visually. The discussion will be preceded by a red carpet-style event–so come to ready to stunt and stay for the thoughtful conversation!
