Join the Alberta Arts Gallery for an evening of performance and story-sharing, exploring the worlds we hope to build. In the rich tradition of Afro-futurism, they want to explore the hopes and dreams we hold for our futures. Inspired by the Black Muslim Futures Zine created by Black Muslim youth and artist in February of 2021 they want to explore questions such as: “The Revolution is won; what world are we building?” and “What were our ancestor’s wildest dreams?”

To support the economic empowerment of Black and Afro-descendant communities, up to $200 million has been dedicated to creating a new Black-Led Philanthropic Endowment Fund.

There are endless examples of how a disadvantage, improbability, or little chance can help fuel a drive for success and opportunity. For example, Albert Einstein didn’t speak until he was four. But he persevered and eventually developed the theory of relativity, a view of gravity. Or Benjamin Franklin, who dropped out of school at age ten, taught himself by reading and eventually invented the lightning rod and bifocals. Or novelist Stephen King, whose first novel was rejected 30 times, sold over 350 million copies of his books, many of which have been made into major motion pictures.

Black Poetry with Amanda Gorman and Maya Angelou

Black Poetry with Amanda Gorman and Maya Angelou

There is a true yearning to respond to
The singing River and the wise Rock.
So say the Asian, the Hispanic, the Jew
The African, the Native American, the Sioux,
The Catholic, the Muslim, the French, the Greek
The Irish, the Rabbi, the Priest, the Sheik,
The Gay, the Straight, the Preacher,
The privileged, the homeless, the Teacher.
They hear. They all hear
The speaking of the Tree.

Learning about Autism with Edore

Learning about Autism with Edore

The Centre for Diseases defines autism as “Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) a developmental disability caused by differences in the brain. People with ASD often have problems with social communication and interaction and restricted or repetitive behaviours or interests. People with ASD may also have different ways of learning, moving, or paying attention. It is important to note that some people without ASD might also have some of these symptoms. But for people with ASD, these characteristics can make life very challenging”.
