Here @ a83 for “an ode to june,” on June Jordan’s architectural practice (seems to draw from Nikil Saval’s 🌟 new 📕) — a pgm hosted by secret poster club as part of their “what is a school?” exhibition — itself w/in the long legacy of Columbia GSAPP activism! www.secretposterclub.org/02-progamming
For more on that longer legacy: Sharon Egretta Sutton’s When Ivory Towers Were Black, which was so useful for my recent article on campus protest www.architectural-review.com/essays/surve...
