Livestream and Q&A:

 

At a time when the disproportionate effects of COVID-19, policing, and disenfranchisement of communities of color have been laid bare, we will examine the dynamic interplay of race, protest, music, healing, religion, and post-colonial theory.

 

Dr. Micheal Viega (John J. Cali School of Music, Music Therapy) and Dr. Kate E. Temoney, College of Humanities and Social Sciences, Department of Religion) invite you to participate in a one-hour web series inspired by the 2019 book by Dr. Theodore W. Burgh: Is God Funky or What? Black Biblical Culture and Contemporary Popular MusicDr. Burgh is a musician, archeologist, and Chair of the Department of Philosophy and Religion and the University of North Carolina Wilmington. This is the inaugural event of a four-part web series during the 2020-2021 academic year, and attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions (and maybe even hear a note or two). This event is free and open to the public.
