Panel Talk: To the Furthest Edge Where Our Freedom Begins: Afro-feminist Collective Struggles

Movements mark the stories of communities coming together and those rupturing to an end. Solidarity work comes with radicality, loss, grief and the practice of conflict and repair to create spaces of safety, legal change and forms of transformational justice. In the re-telling of our own narratives we look back and forwards to the movements and moments of ritual, retreat and revolt through literature and intimate gatherings that provided the imagination through transglobal connections from the Black women of the Black Panther Party, Combahee River Collective, Kitchen Table: Women of Color Press, Riverwood (KEN) to ADEFRA. It is in our differences and our connections that we march common and uncommon struggles to re-define our experience of freedom as a healing journey.

Participants: Marianne Ballé Moudoumbou, Yezenia León Mezu, Jennifer Kamau
