DESCRIPTION:Wed, Nov 11, 2020 • 6pm–7pm\n\nActivist, educator, and author Angela 
 Davis joins artist Isaac Julien to discuss his immersive, moving-image 
 installation "Lessons of the Hour" and Frederick Douglass’ resonant voice 
 in contemporary racial and social justice movements. The program is 
 moderated by Sarah Lewis, associate professor of history of art and 
 architecture and African and African American studies at Harvard 
 University.\n\nHaving helped to popularize the notion of a “prison 
 industrial complex,” Davis now urges her audiences to consider the future 
 possibility of a world without carceral systems and to help forge a 
 twenty-first-century abolitionist movement. \n\nThe West Coast premiere of 
 "Lessons of the Hour" includes an exhibition of Julien’s related 
 photography and selections from the McEvoy Family Collection that further 
 explore questions of identity, justice, history, and image-making in the 
 film installation. New Labor Movements, a resonant original program of film 
 and video shorts curated by Leila Weefur, explores contemporary visions of 
 America and concepts of transnational Blackness. A series of online 
 conversations with these artists and invited thinkers and scholars take 
 place throughout the run of the exhibition.\n\nThis conversation is 
 co-presented by the McEvoy Foundation of the Arts, Museum of the African 
 Diaspora SF, and the San Francisco Public Library.\n
