I went outside and touched grass yesterday!
@rokh.co, @inhumanities, and so many others partnered for a Reading Rave in Highland Park.

When I say the weather was PERFECT, I mean that. My friends and I had such a good time reading together, talking, and meeting new people. 💕✨

Spaces of Encounter has officially come to a close.

Over the past few months, this exhibition stood as a love letter to Black imagination in public space.

As the gallery walls came down, I’m left with an interesting juxtaposition. Today marks America’s 250th anniversary, while we also approach more than 400 years since the beginning of colonial slavery in what became the United States.

Those histories exist together.

What this exhibition reminded me is that Black imagination has always exceeded oppression. It has continuously envisioned new ways of belonging, building, caring, and creating public life.

If public art shapes how we understand our cities, perhaps imagination shapes how we understand our nation.

Thank you to everyone who visited, questioned, reflected, and dreamed with us.

The exhibition in Philly has closed and yet the work of making a better future continues.

Immense gratitude to my co-curator Alyse Tucker, our exhibition strategist Bryn Jackson, and everyone who poured into this
