Watch online at the Schomburg Center's youtube channel Repost from @schomburglive • What would it be like to live in a well-rested world? is a question Tricia Hersey, founder of the Nap Ministry, confronts in her debut publication Rest as Resistance: A Manifesto. Tonight! OCT 12 | 6:30 PM Join us as Tricia Hersey (@thenapministry) invites readers to reimagine the foundations for liberation, healing, and justice. Rest as Resistance "casts an illuminating light on our troubled relationship with rest and how to imagine and dream our way to a future where rest is exalted." Hersey will be joined by Dr. Joan Morgan (@joanmorgan), Program Director of the Center for Black Visual Culture (CBVC) at New York University. This fall the CBVC, inspired by Hersey’s liberatory framework of “rest is resistance," will launch The Black Rest Project (BRP) to amplify visual narratives of Black rest and leisure. Dr. Karinn Glover (@drkarinn) will open the program with a meditation. Signed copies of Rest is Resistance by Tricia Hersey, will be available for purchase from The @schomburgshop in Harlem.
