Wanda's Picks Radio Show, Friday, April 29, 2016
This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African
Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical
(film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora
and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am
interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society,
specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers.
It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their
work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true
heroes. Ashay!
