S E1327: In Class with Carr, Ep. 326: “Roots and Branches”

Drawing on reflections from last week’s experiences in Tulsa, this session of In Class With Carr traces relationships between roots of memory and community and contemporary branches of interventions, struggle and renewal. Beginning with the annual soil collection ritual at Greenwood’s Standpipe Hill, we consider Greenwood as one of countless other “Little Africas” that expand Governance formations to include honored ancestors and fuel Social Structure transformation work with the Momentum of Memory. Through the words of founders of “Black Wall Street” and those who have preserved them and who continue to serve as Djalis, we explore issues of narrative, class, and public memory. By connecting local Cultural Meaning Making and Movement and Memory to Governance designed to also resist external shaping by Social Structure forces with sometimes cross intent, we ask questions of movement building, emphasizing generosity, honesty, and learning across all contexts.
