Kimberly Drew and Jenna Wortham in Conversation at Brooklyn Academy of Music

To celebrate the launch of their new work the co-editors are joined by award-winning writer and activist Raquel Willis and Black Futures contributor Brooklyn artist Naima Green to probe the question: "What does it mean to be Black and alive right now?" Black Futures is a collection of work-featuring images, photos, essays, memes, dialogues, recipes, tweets, poetry, and more-that tells the story of the radical, imaginative, provocative, and gorgeous world that Black creators are bringing forth today.
