On this episode of Black & Published, Nikesha speaks with Natasha Marin, curator of the Black Powerful anthology; the latest installment in her Black Imagination artist series. A conceptual artist whose people-centered projects have circled the globe, Natasha's focus is on  amplifying, centering, and holding sacred space for a diverse sample of voices including LGBTQIA+ Black youth, incarcerated Black women, Black folks with disabilities, unsheltered Black folks, and Black children. She pays the bills by helping individuals and institutions achieve their antiracism goals through creative consulting (NONWHITEWORKS).During our conversation, Natasha explains why even though she got an MFA, she didn't think she had gone through enough trauma to call herself a writer. Plus the one subject she tackled with her writing that led to doxing and death threats, and what it means to believe in Black supremacy. Support the show

This episode is one of my favourites so far. This week we are exploring the black imagination, with two amazing guests. A little more about your guests: Natasha Marin is an antiracism consultant based in Seattle, specializing in communications, community building, and digital engagement. She is the curator of Black Imagination: Black Voices on Black Futures and a conceptual artist whose people-centered projects have circled the globe since 2012 and have been recognized and widely acknowledged. BLACK IMAGINATION—a series of conceptual exhibitions—amplifying, centering, and holding sacred a diverse sample of voices including LGBTQIA+ black youth, incarcerated black women, black folks with disabilities, unsheltered black folks, and black children was her bravest work thus far. Her viral web-based project, Reparations, engaged a quarter of a million people worldwide in the practice of “leveraging privilege,” and earned Marin, a mother of two, death threats by the dozens. Natalie Creary is the Programme Delivery Director for Black Thrive Lambeth. The cross-sector partnership works to dismantle the structural barriers that create and sustain mental health inequalities for Black African and African-Caribbean communities in Lambeth. She has a long-standing interest in approaches that tackle the root causes of inequality and push conventional boundaries. Her interest lies in working with communities and grassroots organisations to decolonise knowledge and to create opportunities for communities to have ownership of their stories and the solutions they deliver to address the social challenges they may face. Her work and research explore how race, age, class, gender and sexuality intersect to shape the health and wellbeing experiences of Black and mixed race communities. She has also completed postgraduate studies in Health Psychology and lectures on health inequality, quality improvement methodologies and health promotion for Middlesex University's MSc Public Health. She is also on the editorial board of the Lancet Psychiatry.

In her Black Imagination project, Natasha Marin talks with Black participants about their experiences, connections to Africa, and the nuances of Black Joy. This clip is an excerpt from a conversation with Hasaan Kirkland.

There has been a series of conversations happening in Seattle recently. They seek to answer questions around who people are, and where they came from. Or how they view their relation to Africa.Artist Natasha Marin gathered small groups of people to make community and share origin stories.We were invited to hear this session, which started with the question: What does it sound like when you claim yourself -- who I am; where and who I came from; what I’m here to do?The conversation flows on, prompted by more questions. When do you feel most indigenous, or at home? What is your relation, real or imagined, to Africa? Then it finishes with lullabies.The gathering is casual and caring, but Marin invokes a sense of presence. It has the import of an honest moment, of both weight and lightness.Natasha Marin is a poet and interdisciplinary artist: “The creative work I produce takes on many forms: poetry, video, sound, performance, and immersive and interactive installation. This multiplicity defines my work and functions like a native tongue. I use this language of multiplicity to communicate most profoundly who I am and what I believe about the world we are living in.”Marin is the curator of the new book Black Imagination: Black Voices on Black Futures. She led this conversation with guests Syreeta Bernal, Hasaan Kirkland and Nii Okaidja at the Jack Straw Cultural Center studios on December 13, 2019. Ayesha Ubayatilaka engineered the session.Please note: This recording contains unedited language of an adult nature.

This mini-deep end was produced by our intern Aisha Al Amin. Aisha, Eyerusalem, and Damme took a field trip into the Black Imagination of Natasha Marin, Imani Sims, Rachel Ferguson, and Amber Flame. This experiential art exhibit debuted on January 27, 2018 in Core Gallery. https://www.seattleglobalist.com/2018/01/12/why-core-gallerys-black-imagination-is-so-necessary/71383

Natasha Marin visits The Context of White Supremacy. A writer and interdisciplinary artist, Marin is a mother and Gus's Washington state neighbor. She was born in Trinidad and is a naturalized citizen of the United States and Canada. During the summer of 2016, a social media excercise evolved into the website: www.Reparations.me. Non-whites are encouraged "to ask for what we need to feel better, be happier, be more productive by posting in this space. These may be both material and immaterial requests." Marin then invited "people who identify as White to offer services or contributions." The cite has generated extraorinsary attention from around the world. A number of non-white people have been able to ask for and receive constructive assisatance. However, non-white people requesting help and Ms. Marin have been terrorized; Suspected Racists have labeled them "whores," "bloodsuckers," and racial slurs. We'll ask if this unforeseen "whitelash" will cause her to end this experiment early. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p
