DESCRIPTION:The Institute of the Arts and Sciences presents a special conversation and 
 double book release with authors James Spooner, Chris L. Terry, and John 
 Malkin. Books will be available for purchase by the authors.\n\nBlack Punk 
 Now (Soft Skull – October 31, 2023) by James Spooner and Chris L. Terry 
 is an anthology of contemporary nonfiction, fiction, illustrations, and 
 comics that collectively describe punk today and give punks—especially 
 the Black ones—a wider frame of reference. With strong visual elements 
 integrated throughout, this smart, intimate collection is demonstrative of 
 punk by being punk itself: underground, rebellious, aesthetic but not 
 static—working to decenter whiteness by prioritizing other 
 perspectives.\n\nPunk Revolution! – An Oral History of Punk Rock Politics 
 and Activism (Rowman & Littlefield – June 15, 2023) by John Malkin is 
 based on interviews with 200 international musicians, writers and activists 
 exploring the ways that punk rock has taken on militarism, patriarchy, 
 white supremacy, the police, settler colonialism, the climate crisis and 
 more.  \n\nJames Spooner is an award-winning graphic novelist, filmmaker 
 and tattoo artist.  His debut graphic novel, The High Desert  is the 2023 
 recipient of the American Library Association’s Alex Award and the 
 Cartoonist Studio Prize. Pantheon has recently acquired his forthcoming 
 second memoir, set for publication in 2025.  Spooner directed the seminal 
 documentary Afro-Punk and co-founded the AfroPunk Festival, which currently 
 boasts audiences in the hundreds of thousands around the world. \n\nChris 
 L. Terry is the author of the novel Black Card, one of NPR’s best books 
 of 2019. Terry’s debut novel Zero Fade was on Best of 2013 lists by Slate 
 and Kirkus Reviews. Born in 1979 to a Black father and white mother, Terry 
 spent his late teens and early twenties touring as the vocalist for 
 different Richmond, Virginia punk bands. He has a Creative Writing MFA from 
 Columbia College Chicago, and now lives and teaches in Los Angeles. His 
 recent work has appeared in Pitchfork, Stereogum, Razorcake, Very Smart 
 Brothas/The Root, Catapult and theLAnd Magazine.\n\nJohn Malkin lives in 
 Santa Cruz and is a musician, activist, journalist and UCSC Community 
 Studies graduate. His previous books are Sounds of Freedom: Musicians on

 Nonviolent Peacemakers in America (2008). His interviews and writings have
