Philly correspondent Theodore A. Harris just sent this along, an great looking event this weekend in Brooklyn:

Howardena Pindell on KARA WALKER - NO / YES / ?
Sat. December 4th
2-4pm

MoCADA
80 Hanson Place, Brooklyn, NY

Professor, artist and activist Howardena Pindell has created a new anthology. Kara Walker-No, Kara Walker-Yes, Kara Walker-? is a collection of essays written by other contemporary artists, educators, writers and poets discussing controversial artist Kara Walker. Whether you agree with Pindell or not, or whether Walker's silhouettes appeal to you or not, this book will certainly begin a
conversation about visual culture in the Black community. The talk features a number of authors and artists including Theodore A. Harris, Ben Jones and Rashida Ishmali.
