Blue Book Club: Black Skinhead
RSVPBlack Skinhead: Reflections on Blackness and Our Political Future
DACN's Blue Book Club meets Sunday, March 26th, at 2PM.
We'll be discussing Black Skinhead: Reflections on Blackness and Our Political Future by Brandi Collins-Dexter. Attendees are in for a discussion of Black identity and politics. Brandi Collins-Dexter explores the fragile alliance between Black voters and the Democratic party. Bring questions, comments, and note that there will be a future event with the author.
"When someone tells you everything is fine, but around you, you see evidence that it’s not, where will the quest to find answers lead you? As I went on the journey of writing this book, I found a very different tale about Black politics and Black America, one that countered white America’s long-held assumption that Black voters will always vote Democrat―and even that the Democratic party is the best bet for Black Americans.
My ultimate question was this: how are Black people being led away―not towards―each other, and what do we lose when we lose each other? What do we lose when, to quote Kanye West, we feel lost in the world."
This is a hybrid event, please RSVP for the Zoom link and in-person location details.
