Stamps Gallery invites you to join us for a screening of Fluid Frontiers, 2017, by Ephraim Asili,a film that explores the relationship between concepts of resistance and liberation, exemplified by the Underground Railroad, Broadside Press, and artworks of local Detroit Artists.

The film is followed by a public conversation titled Retracing Black Text & Pedagogy: A Meditation on Black radical traditions in Detroit, organized by ARTS.BLACK and Kameelah Janan Rasheed in correspondence with Rasheed’s installation on view at Stamps Gallery, Ecosystems (activation ii). This is a public program for the exhibition Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire on view at Stamps Gallery from September 21 — November 18, 2018.
