Question Bridge: Black Males
“Are your children better or worse off as a result of your involvement?”
“What do you really think of white women?”
“Am I the only one with a problem eating chicken, watermelons, and bananas in front of white people?”
“I have a question. How do you know when you become a man?”
These direct and personal questions are a few of the many posed and answered in Question Bridge: Black Males, an exhibit that opened at the Brooklyn Museum on January 13, and is set to open before the end of January at three more U.S. museums – in Atlanta, Oakland, and Salt Lake City – and is also showing at the Sundance Film Festival. The multimedia installation displays video recordings of a wide-variety of black men asking and answering each other poignant questions, creating a sort of public forum for conversations that might otherwise be too intimate for them to have face-to-face.
After watching the video, it seems like an interesting project. Read more about it here: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Black Men But Were Afraid to Ask
