  • 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm | Wednesday April 26, 2023
  • Lovage | Ace Hotel New Orleans
  • 610 Carondelet St
  • Free

Southern organizer Emma Robinson is interested in creating “insurgents”. Using media of all forms to shift our relationship to culture and the systems we interact with on a daily basis, her work is for Third World Women, girls on the porch, and the women she was raised by. From the big boogeyman of capitalism to increased access to reproductive care there is no subject too taboo if we create a new world to be in. Through Teach-Ins, Library Installations, and Read In’s Emma is living into Toni Cade Bambara’s mandate that as a “culture worker who belongs to an oppressed people my job is to make revolution irresistible”.” Catch her and guest Kuti as they take a deep dive into “This Long Thread” by Jen Hewett in the first iteration of our new literature series “What Are You Reading?” in partnership with Baldwin & Company.

Jazz Brunch in Josephine Estelle at Josephine Estelle

We think a good brunch should go something like a jazz quartet. Pancakes ground you like the walking bass, egg yolks coat your palate like the lush sounds of a grand piano, coffee adds some mid-morning rhythm, and the citrus brightens the mood like a sting from a horn. Josephine Estelle offers weekend brunch from 8am to 3pm with Or Shovaly creating a soundscape to make your morning that much better.
