Screening of ‘BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions’

“BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions” is adapted from a video art installation by Kahlil Joseph. The work is presented as a cinematic experience structured to resemble the sonic qualities of a record album. It combines fictional and historical elements in an immersive format that features fictionalized portrayals of W. E. B. Du Bois and Marcus Garvey, alongside appearances by artists, musicians, members of Joseph’s family, and material drawn from Twitter chats, collectively forming a vision centered on Black consciousness.

The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with Kahlil Joseph (Director), Onye Anyanwu (Producer), King Britt (Prof. of Music), and Brian Cross (Prof. of Visual Arts), 6:30 – 8 p.m.

Co-Presented by the Department of Visual Arts and IDEAS at UC San Diego.
