“Kevin Powell returns with a poetic time capsule written with love in honor of his mother’s evolution. Powell investigates the nature of our country’s oppression through the generational wounds survived and passed on. These poems are a testament to the healing work of Kevin Powell, as they revel in the power of forgiveness, abundance, and lineage.” —Mahogany L. Browne, Lincoln Center’s inaugural poet in residence and author of Vinyl Moon

On this day in history, The Black Panther Party was established on October 15, 1966. Celebrating 57 years since its founding, The Blank Panther Party was initially established by Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale. The Party started in Oakland, California and created several chapters within major American cities by the late 1960's. Their influence and campaign for civil rights continue to resonate with current social movements, including Black Lives Matter.

AAMP recognizes other renowned members, including the sole female chairman, Elaine Brown, and the notable leaders, Fred Hampton, Angela Davis, and Eldridge Cleaver. Originally dubbed the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, the organization's early activities primarily involved monitoring police activities in Black communities in Oakland and other cities. Newton and Seale outlined the organization’s philosophical views and political objectives in a Ten-Point Program, which called for an immediate end to police brutality, employment for African Americans, and land, housing and justice for all.

The Black Panthers started several popular community social programs, including free breakfast programs for school children and free health clinics in 13 African-American communities across the United States.

Join us at the African American Museum in Philadelphia for a very special evening with renowned artist Alison Saar, in conversation with AAMP’s Vice President of Curatorial Affairs, Dejay B. Duckett as they explore Alison’s past, future and present work, including her current full room installation for Rising Sun: Artists in an Uncertain America at PAFA, Hygiea.

Audience Q&A to follow!

About the Artist:

Alison Saar is a sculptor, mixed-media, and installation artist. Saar creates artwork transforming found objects that reflect themes of social identity, history, and religion. Saar credits her mother, acclaimed collagist and assemblage artist Betye Saar, with exposing her to metaphysical and spiritual traditions. Assisting her father, Richard Saar, a painter and art conservator, in his restoration shop inspired her learning and curiosity about other cultures. Saar’s style includes a multitude of personal, artistic, and cultural references that reflect the plurality of her own experiences. Her sculptures, installations, and prints incorporate found objects, including rough-hewn wood, old tin ceiling panels, nails, shards of pottery, glass, and urban detritus. The resulting figures and objects become powerful totems exploring issues of gender, race, heritage, and history.

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month🔥!

This is one of AAMP's interns, Janiyah Adams! 🙌🏾
And today, I would like to highlight Elizabeth Acevedo ().

💙She is a Dominican-American poet and author of “The Poet X” and many more young adult fiction books.

💙She was born on February 15, 1988, in New York. Her parents were immigrants from the Dominican Republic. She enjoyed reading when she was young and began writing poetry at about age eight.

💙Her love of hip-hop and rapping led her to participate in poetry slams when she was a teenager.

💙As a child, her family would tell her stories about their lives in the Dominican Republic, which inspired her to tell her own. First, as a slam poet, and later, as a writer. Her vibrant performances often highlight the complexities of Afro-Latinidad and violence against women.

💙She is currently the national poetry slam champion and resides in Washington D.C, with her husband Shakir Cannon-Moye.

🎉 Happy Hispanic Heritage Month 🎉,

Today, AAMP is uplifting the incredible Arturo Alfonso Schomburg (Jan 24, 1864-June 8, 1938), a Puerto Rican historian, writer, activist and critical figure in the Harlem Renaissance. He was the son of a Puerto Rican merchant of German descent and an Afro-Caribbean woman from the Danish West Indies.

At 17-years-old, he immigrated to New York in 1891, liberation movements of Puerto Rico and Cuba. He founded, in 1892, 'Las dos Antillas,' a cultural and political group that worked for the islands’ independence from Spain. The following year, he expanded his focus to the entire African diaspora.

During his life, he collected an archive of 10,000 items, including ranging from newspapers published by Frederick Douglass, poems by Phillis Wheatley, and a bevy of artifacts and documents that prove the legacy, contributions, and impact of African Americans.

In 1926, using funds from the Carnegie Foundation, the New York Public Library acquired Schomburg’s collection. It lives on today as the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture and has grown to over 10 million items.
