Love and Revolution: Exhibit Tour
Education Philosophy and Religion Department at Parkway Central Library
Join members of the Saturday Free School at 6:15 p.m. for a tour of the exhibit. We will meet by the display cases on the 2nd floor landing.
Celebrate 100 years of James Baldwin (August 2, 1924 – December 1, 1987) with selections from across the Free Library’s collections highlighting Baldwin’s work, influence, and legacy. On display outside the Social Science and History Department at Parkway Central Library, Love and Revolution: James Baldwin Speaks to Our Time highlights Baldwin’s influence on the Civil Rights Movement during his time and his influence on revolutionary thought today.
In collaboration with the Saturday Free School for Philosophy and Black Liberation, we selected materials from the Art Department, Fleisher Collection, Print and Picture Collection, Rare Book Department, Social Science and History Department, and the circulating collection that highlights Baldwin’s work and influence. These library materials are placed in conversation with art, poetry, and music that articulate Baldwin’s ongoing impact and underscore the continued importance of his work.
Can't make the tour? Stop by anytime during Parkway Central Library’s opening hours to view the display, which is up now and will continue through the end of September.
