Visually fashioned in the style known as ‘Urban Fiction’, #HOODTALES, is an ongoing exploration of Black femme identity both as cultural commentary, and self-reflection. Designed and developed by artist Kenya (Robinson), these “Books” are journals disguised as paperbacks and made available on Amazon.com via Amazon Direct Publishing. In an effort to recognize the collective nature of story-making, the artist, and Jillian Hernandez, Ph.D. have prepared an in-person Book Club Meeting for the Legend of White M.I.K.E Series. With discussion facilitated by Terri Bailey, founder, and CEO of Bailey Learning And Arts Collective (BLAAC), the ensuing documentation will serve as research material for the eventual publication of the works as literary fiction.

Please join us on THURSDAY, JULY 28th from 6-8 pm at the Ustler Hall Atrium (The University of Florida) for BOOK CLUBBING sponsored by BLIXEL: The (Re)Stock Image Project, CULTURE/NATURE/STRUCTURE, and BLACC2BASICS. Catering is provided by Kushy Cuisine.

Registration is FREE and ONLY available via BLIXELPIXEL@GMAIL.COM
