Wanda's Picks Radio Show Special

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!

Today we speak to her Majesty Queen Mother Dowati Desir Hounon Houna II and Yeye Luisah Teish about their spiritual practices and how African Dispora Spirituality is best practice for Diaspora citizen well-being. They are a part of a series of events beginning Wed., March 4-Sun., Mar. 8, to explore this topic.

We close the show with a rebroadcast of an interview with choreographers featured in BCF Here and Now 2020 which continues this weekend at Mills College.
