Tanisha C. Ford on Black Creative Genius

How do Black art and creativity help imagine new worlds? How does fashion help us think about the intersection of power and desire? What can we do to make space for public scholarship and community engagement in our work?

In episode 45 of the Imagine Otherwise podcast, Cathy Hannabach interviews Tanisha C.
