#Afriscape #VisualCulture A throughline between African (yoruba?) beading traditions, first nations and African struggle for liberation against white settler colonialism, Egun (ancestor veneration) and #NewOrleans funk. Several parts of this brought tears to my eyes. #MardiGras #Indians
Nice 2025 set from the #PanAfrican Space Station in South #Africa. #Afriscape #Jazz #Afrifuturism
“Sophie Oluwole (1935-2018) was a Nigerian scholar and the first woman to earn a PhD in philosophy in her country. She not only placed Nigeria’s rich Yoruba philosophical tradition on the intellectual map, she also helped redefine African philosophy, a field dominated by men.” #Afriscape #Philosophy
#Shaboozey born from Igbo Nigerian parents and raised in #Texas will be performing on tonight's awards ceremony. I like the #Afriscape mix in that. Looking forward to hearing #MilesCaton performing "I lied to you" from #Sinners too. #BlackVisualCulture #Cinema #Oscars
My favorite cut from this 1975 Randy Weston recording is the Guy Warren composition “Mystery of Love” featuring Billy Harper on flute. Warren was the Ghanaian pioneer of #AfroJazz. #Afriscape #Jazz
