In Class with Carr, Ep. 249: "The Perfectibility of Blackness”

This week we will use the origin story of Philadelphia Freedom Schools to revisit the essential components of an African education: The intergenerational transmission of knowledge, values and wisdom; the development of character, social responsibility and accountability; and the training of next and future generations to assume roles currently held by elders. By re-membering from the deep well of African thought and practice, can “Blackness,” a concept invented as a tool of oppression, be recrafted beyond a strategy for resistance to become a space for social perfectibility?
