The Forum // Gerald Horne & Tongo Eisen-Martin
January 14, 2021
The Lab
Historian Gerald Horne and poet Tongo Eisen-Martin discuss the journey of the U.S. empire and the topography of international Black revolution. The practice of uniting the experience of event and idea into the present-moment mechanics of consciousness that extends from and into resistance.

Du Bois and has written books on neglected but by no means marginal or minor episodes of world history.

The Black Arts Movement in the Broader Legacy of the Civil Rights Movement: Angela Jackson Talk
The aim of the symposium was to bring together writers and activists from that era to talk about the influential alignments, cross-currents among them, and tell us what goals we can now understand as shared even if the means differed at that time. The impact of that era on African American literature has been called a "furious flowering." A clear discussion of the insights from this past is necessary for us to continue forward with this harvest.
The symposium focused on the midwestern centers of the movement. The panelists are: Angela Jackson, poet, novelist and playwright; Sterling Plumpp, poet, scholar, editor and activist; Carolyn Rodgers, poet, feminist and educator; and Sala Udin, Freedom Rider, actor in the establishment of the Pittsburgh Black Horizons Theatre, under the directio...

Paul Beatty, R. Zamora Linmark, and Jessica Hagedorn
The year was 1996. Two novelists of color publish stunning and provocative coming-of-age debuts. Through fiercely earnest characters navigating a landscape of burning dreams and neglect in a small 1970s Hawaiian community, R. Zamora Linmark’s Rolling the R’s threw new light on queer identity and the trauma of assimilation—and is now available in a new, updated edition from Kaya Press. Paul Beatty’s brilliant, satirical The White Boy Shuffle introduced us to an unforgettable protagonist—a young African American surfer in Los Angeles who reluctantly becomes a messiah for his community. Twenty years after the publication of their first novels, the two authors joined each other in reflection, celebration, and conversation. Moderated by writer Jessica Hagedorn (Toxicology).

The Lab
Historian Gerald Horne and poet Tongo Eisen-Martin discuss the journey of the U.S. empire and the topography of international Black revolution. The practice of uniting the experience of event and idea into the present-moment mechanics of consciousness that extends from and into resistance. Interpreting the crests and troughs of social contradictions; or masses as music.
Gerald Horne is an American historian who currently holds the John J. and Rebecca Moores Chair of History and African American Studies at the University of Houston. Horne has published on W. E. B. Du Bois and has written books on neglected but by no means marginal or minor episodes of world history. He writes about topics he perceives as misrepresented struggles for justice, in particular communist struggles and struggles against imperialism, colonialism, fascism, racism and white supremacy. A Marxist, individuals whose lives his work has highlighted in their historical contexts have included the blacklisted Hollywood screenwriter John Howard Lawson, Ferdinand Smith (a Jamaican-born communist, sailor, labor leader, and co-founder of the National Maritime Union), and Lawrence Dennis, an African American fascist and racist who passed for white.
While many of Horne's books use a celebrated, intriguing or politically engaged individual as a prism to inspect the historical forces of their times, Horne has also produced broad canvas chronicles of infrequently examined periods and aspects of the history of white supremacy and imperialism such as the post-civil war involvement of the US ruling class—newly dispossessed of human chattels—with slavery in Brazil, which was not legally abolished until 1888, or the attempts by Japanese imperialists in the mid-20th century to appear as the leaders of a global war against white supremacy, thus allies and instruments of "liberation" for people of color oppressed by imperialism.
Manning Marable has said: "Gerald Horne is one of the most gifted and insightful historians on racial matters of his generation."
Originally from San Francisco, Tongo Eisen-Martin is a poet, movement worker, and educator. His latest curriculum on extrajudicial killing of Black people, We Charge Genocide Again, has been used as an educational and organizing tool throughout the country. His book titled, "Someone's Dead Already" was nominated for a California Book Award. His latest book "Heaven Is All Goodbyes" was published by the City Lights Pocket Poets series, was shortlisted for the Griffin Poetry Prize and won a California Book Award and an American Book Award.
The Forum is an experiment in creating discourse within the context of isolation. Art creates a space for reconsidering our knowledge across various social and professional fields. It asks us: Why do we perceive things the way we do? What are we living for? How can we reimagine our relationships to the human and non-human world? The Forum proposes that the project of freedom is a project of making a world with others. So, we invite you to help us answer: what can we do now?

The symposium focused on the midwestern centers of the movement. The panelists are: Angela Jackson, poet, novelist and playwright; Sterling Plumpp, poet, scholar, editor and activist; Carolyn Rodgers, poet, feminist and educator; and Sala Udin, Freedom Rider, actor in the establishment of the Pittsburgh Black Horizons Theatre, under the direction of his childhood friends, Rob Penny and August Wilson, elected member of the Pittsburgh City Council, where he served for 11 years.

The year was 1996. Two novelists of color publish stunning and provocative coming-of-age debuts. Through fiercely earnest characters navigating a landscape of burning dreams and neglect in a small 1970s Hawaiian community, R.

Recorded March 12, 2019
In conversation with Gene Seymour, contributor to The Nation and former film critic and jazz columnist for Newsday. He has written for Bookforum, CNN.com, and The Washington Post.
Author and spoken-word artist Darius James’s 1992 masterpiece, the William S. Burroughs meets Thomas Pynchon meets Ishmael Reed fever-dream Negrophobia, is a raunchy, raucous, headlong dive into the many faces of American racism. With other works including That's Blaxploitation: Roots of the Baadassssss 'Tude, Voodoo Stew, and Froggy Chocolate's Christmas Eve, James is the cowriter and narrator of the of 2013 film The United States of Hoodoo. With a new introduction by film scholar Amy Abugo Ongiri and a new preface by the author, the multi-genre Negrophobia is dire, darkly comic, and more relevant than ever.

THE JDO SHOW - "Mumbo Jumbo" by Ishmael Reed w/ Scott Adlerberg (Parts 1 & 2)
In the first part of our discussion about Ishmael Reed's Mumbo Jumbo, we talk about the plot of the novel, Jes Grew, the Harlem Renaissance, the concept of The Talking Android, Charles S. Wright, and the problem with creating art from the perspective of misery.
The second part of our conversation gets much more "Jes Grew" than the first. While we talk about the novel (including a recap of the Egyptian mythology), we delve deep into the Jes Grew vs. Atonist divide, and what our modern art could learn from dropping a "good vs. bad" aesthetic to focus more on whether or not the work of art feels alive or inert. We also talk about whether or not Warren J. Harding was our first black president.

Meet Ishmael Reed
"My first novel was a collage," says acclaimed author Ishmael Reed. "I've always been mixing and sampling. My mind works that way. It's hyper-textual. I think of one thing, and it leads me to another."
Beginning with The Free-lance Pallbearers in 1967, Reed has published ten novels, including Mumbo Jumbo (1972), Flight to Canada (1976), and most recently, Juice! (2011). His writing spans other genres as well, including plays, essays, and poetry. His poetry collection Conjure (1972) was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.
Watch Reed speak about his unique style of telling stories, which draw upon different languages, religions, and other cultural influences. "I consider myself an ethnic gatecrasher," he says.

Books & Shit: Infectious Mumbo Jumbo
This installment of Books & Shit takes a look at the novel Mumbo Jumbo by author and poet Ishmael Reed, an inspired postmodern piece of magical realism, Afrofuturism, and clever satire. It offers a perspective on the past that includes a narrative which is too often left out, specifically the African American, as well as an infectious possibility for defying racism.
This episode also features artwork by Kerry James Marshall.

"My first novel was a collage," says acclaimed author Ishmael Reed. "I've always been mixing and sampling. My mind works that way. It's hyper-textual. I think of one thing, and it leads me to another."
Beginning with The Free-lance Pallbearers in 1967, Reed has published ten novels, including Mumbo Jumbo (1972), Flight to Canada (1976), and most recently, Juice! (2011). His writing spans other genres as well, including plays, essays, and poetry. His poetry collection Conjure (1972) was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.

Terence Byrnes on Photography and the Author Photograph
Through his work as a writer, editor, and photographer, Terence Byrnes came to know and to photograph many Montreal-based writers throughout their careers. "For ten years, he photographed them in places where they felt at home, but not always at ease. 'Most contemporary literary portraits,' Byrnes says, 'are as highly burnished as Playboy nudes or as homespun as family snapshots. When I made these images, I was an interloper the writers had to react to.”

Through his work as a writer, editor, and photographer, Terence Byrnes came to know and to photograph many Montreal-based writers throughout their careers. "For ten years, he photographed them in places where they felt at home, but not always at ease. 'Most contemporary literary portraits,' Byrnes says, 'are as highly burnished as Playboy nudes or as homespun as family snapshots. When I made these images, I was an interloper the writers had to react to.”
Closer to Home: The Author and the Author Portrait (Vehicule Press, 2008) "fixes its gaze on writers as we seldom see them. These photographs, and the stories that accompany them, were captured where the writers live, work, or play. The result is a series of portraits that take us inside writers’ lives and inside the process of making portraits—all served with a touch of refined literary gossip."
Sounds like what we did when I met Terry at his home in Montreal to discuss the book. Among other things we talked about status, 'the thinker' gesture, authority and value, books and bricks, Susan Gillis, photographic crews from Toronto, the proliferation of imagery, the convergence of moving and still images, the diminishing role of the professional photographer, eyes, romanticizing crocks, impressions of presence, Roméo Dallaire, interest curiosity and light, postures, the Montreal Review of Books, Photoshop, negative ego, Annie Leibovitz, trust, Avedon in Texas and caring, achieving control over the world, noticing, Ishmael Reed, Robert Frank, contradiction and great art, sexual harassment at Concordia University, Stephen Fry, and selfies.

The WVU Libraries’ Art in the Libraries Virtual Program hosts “Women Speak”, a juried performance of poetry, songs, short stories and essays, in a virtual format on Saturday, Oct. 17, from 1-3 p.m.
The annual event is a creation of the Women of Appalachia Project (WOAP) who issues a call to residents throughout Appalachia. This year’s participants hail from West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Tennessee and North Carolina.
“Many people have an image of an Appalachian woman, and they look down on her. The mission of WOAP is to showcase the way in which female artists respond to the Appalachian region as a source of inspiration, bringing together women from diverse backgrounds, ages and experiences to embrace the stereotype – to show the whole woman; beyond the superficial factors that people use to judge her,” said Kari Gunter-Seymour, WOAP founder and executive director.
The Libraries, the Center for Women’s and Gender Studies, the Women’s Resource Center and the WVU LGBTQ+ Center are partnering to bring the spoken word event back to Morgantown for a fourth time. The program is free and open to the public.
This event is in conjunction with WVU Libraries’ exhibition Undefeated: Canvas(s)ing the Politics Around Voter Suppression Since Women’s Suffrage and in partnership with the West Virginia Women Vote of Morgantown coalition.

This event is in conjunction with WVU Libraries’ exhibition Undefeated: Canvas(s)ing the Politics Around Voter Suppression Since Women’s Suffrage and in partnership with the West Virginia Women Vote of Morgantown coalition.

Meet Ishmael Reed
"My first novel was a collage," says acclaimed author Ishmael Reed. "I've always been mixing and sampling. My mind works that way. It's hyper-textual. I think of one thing, and it leads me to another."
Beginning with The Free-lance Pallbearers in 1967, Reed has published ten novels, including Mumbo Jumbo (1972), Flight to Canada (1976), and most recently, Juice! (2011). His writing spans other genres as well, including plays, essays, and poetry. His poetry collection Conjure (1972) was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.
Watch Reed speak about his unique style of telling stories, which draw upon different languages, religions, and other cultural influences. "I consider myself an ethnic gatecrasher," he says.

Thursday, June 3rd at 8pm ET: PBS Books, in partnership with The Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH) and the Keiga Foundation, presents this Author Talk with Ishmael Reed about his book The Complete Muhammad Ali. The journalist Stephen Henderson will lead the conversation discussing the fascinating narrative of Muhammad Ali’s life. Together, Reed and Henderson will explore why we continue to remember and celebrate Ali, and delve into the importance of incorporating other, often unexplored voices, in charting one’s legacy. This special event precedes the upcoming documentary Muhammad Ali, a film by Ken Burns, Sarah Burns, & David McMahon, slated for PBS broadcast in 2021/22.
About the Book
Reed’s 2015 book The Complete Muhammad Ali discusses American boxer and activist Muhammad Ali (1942-2016), with a unique addition of previously uncharted material and photographs documenting his life. In the biography, Reed traces many of Ali’s notable experiences, include his role as part of the Nation of Islam, feats in competitive boxing, and his undeniable trailblazing in modern African American history. While the book is the culmination of over ten years of research and writing celebrating Ali’s everlasting legacy, it is also a crucial and nuanced portrait of the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries.

"My first novel was a collage," says acclaimed author Ishmael Reed. "I've always been mixing and sampling. My mind works that way. It's hyper-textual. I think of one thing, and it leads me to another."
Beginning with The Free-lance Pallbearers in 1967, Reed has published ten novels, including Mumbo Jumbo (1972), Flight to Canada (1976), and most recently, Juice! (2011). His writing spans other genres as well, including plays, essays, and poetry. His poetry collection Conjure (1972) was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.
Watch Reed speak about his unique style of telling stories, which draw upon different languages, religions, and other cultural influences. "I consider myself an ethnic gatecrasher," he says.
