Just had my mind fully blown by an aesthetics talk on medieval Indian aesthetics by Cat Prueitt, about how cognition makes us free. Also about the deep difference between Western and South Asian ideas here.
Ok, explaining this might take a while. Here goes:
On Wednesday, @eihtbeezy gave a great talk on the Black Male Studies Paradigm, which was followed by some invigorating discussions on the explanatory payoff, parameters, potential constraint and implications of adopting and applying the paradigm.
Our MAP committee member, @eihtbeezy, will give a lecture on “The Black Male Studies Paradigm” tomorrow. To see more details or/and register for the lecture, go to eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-black…
