I absolutely loved this lecture, it was more so interesting for me as a human being and a member of the African diaspora than as a sound artist, but I believe it is just as important to gain knowledge from people who speak on issues that concern you and people in your family as a matter of human necessity and as a matter of inspiration and fuel to my spirit as a creative. I loved how she linked our tribal polyrhythmic culture to the sound of Afro-Diasporic music to this day, this is key to me as I wish to expand upon this point within my Essay. I loved how she linked the problems in the afro community today as a political one with deep roots in genocide and slavery. Big up Janine! Very special lecture
