    What happens when justice is delayed? If for too long, or with too effective a prolong opposition, is it inevitable that it be permanently denied? If it is accurate that “politics is the art of the possible but art creates the possible of politics,” as Ta-Nehisi Coates writes in his book “The Message, what is the responsibility of the artist to imagine not only transforming positive social change but a world in which deep memory informs the future? And what happens when the artist commingles their own individual and group memory with that of others, creating a shared humanity that threatens to topple violences based on maintaining difference?Those who use art to build stories and connect human beings to each other with shared insights, emotions and experiences work against powerful Social Structures designed to exploit, harm and control. What happens when stories that maintain oppressive hierarchies break down under the weight of other stories, delivered with powerful clarity by masters of craft, of common language? What happens when, in response, stagecraft and common language is used to build narratives that reinforce the harms?“In Class” session number 239 draws from news of the death of non baseball Hall-of-Famer Peter Edward Rose to the whitelash defensive aftermath of the release of “the Message” to ask fundamental questions: Can justice, long delayed, be permanently denied?

    The first “post-COVID” US presidential election is upon us. As most of the people in the world have endured national elections, it is the US's turn in a year that has seen or will see the majority of the world's people experience national elections, from Senegal to Sri Lanka, from Mexico to Mozambique, from India to the European Union. But the pandemic has receded and life cycles beset with perpetual spectacle are back in full effect. The distractions and serial stimuli are stronger than ever in a social structure that grows bloodier with each passing day. Can we pause long enough to ask ourselves how we renew our focus to act as swiftly as we did during the pandemic to intervene in the affairs of society? In Session 34 of In Class, in the wake of the existential crisis triggered by the 2020 US election season, we examined “The Power of the Pause.” The “Summer of The Reckoning” was behind us, as was the 2020 elections, the political culmination of a once-in-a-lifetime convergence of disease, state violence and electoral politics. Now, poised on the brink of a match between the bloody politics of white nationalism and the pragmatic politics of blunting state violence, we must ask ourselves amid the nonstop noise: “can we recapture our imaginations from the frenetic pace of distraction and consumption and take decisive action?”JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    This happens every so often, and increasingly as the US empire expanded. It comes as a commingling of domestic and foreign policy: Vietnam, The War In Iraq, and now the Israel-Palestinian slaughter.What happens when the interests of the people clash with the interests of the privileged? Biden will be at Morehouse in two weeks. Between now and then, so much is poised to happen.They've literally unleashed police on college students, faculty, observers, and anyone whom the police want to harm. There is no legal justification; this is pure repression. And mass commercial “news” outlets are pushing pure propaganda, no doubt at the behest of owners.Meanwhile, student journalists like at Columbia and UPenn and independent outlets are pushing back. The International Court of Justice could issue arrest warrants for Netanyahu any time now. Israel has seen Columbia and Turkey move to break diplomatic and trade ties. And in Haiti, the attempt to install another US-France-Canada backed interim prime minister has been met with widespread derision.The “elites” (the moneyed and privileged) have lost the power to control the narrative and have dropped all pretenses that they are doing anything other than attempting to suppress by any means necessary.And the end of the school year isn't going to help. Brown and Northwestern had the good sense to put the issue of divestment to a vote, thereby reaching a truce with the students.But we're headed toward the summer, the presidential contest, and the Dem convention in Chicago. Unlike 1968, where King and RFK assassinations fed a wave of discontent that led to Nixon's election and the spiral that we have yet to emerge from, there is a real fascist waiting to assume control of the presidency and push us past the brink.We might be living in the events of the moment that will break the experiment, a moment that portends “national suicide.”JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Federalism has never been a true reality, and it is being tested in ways that haven't been as acute since the Civil War. What happens when things fall apart, and the center cannot hold?

    The world that Norman Lear curated, including the black world, and the way that black cultural meaning makers like Esther Rolle and John Amos pushed back against him, are a lens for examining the difference between social structures and governance formations in Africana.
