Join us for a dynamic panel discussion exploring the impact and enduring legacy of Black cultural expression across Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri. Featuring textile artist Sonie Joi Ruffin and literary artist Quraysh Ali Lansana, this conversation highlights how Black art serves as a record of history, an expression of identity, and a force for dialogue and change. Through their artistic practices and regional perspectives, our guests will share how creativity helps shape community, preserve heritage, and inspire cultural understanding across generations.
