Panel Discussion- BLACK, BOLD, & BRILLIANT: Black Joy Edition

Join Black, Bold, & Brilliant as we go behind the movement and the magic of Black Joy as we kickoff the 2021 Utah Juneteenth Festival! Black Joy is everywhere at the moment. It’s in the media, it’s on everyone’s lips, and it’s the latest topic we’re exploring. Black Joy is a form of radical self care to have grace, hold space, and work on yourself to continue persevering in an uncertain world. It’s in the way we walk, the way we talk, the way we dance, the way we sing, and the way we strive to just be- in a fullness of expression that is uniquely Black and all our own.

Our panelists are Outdoor Auntie Ashley Cleveland, TV personality James Brown, comedian Arvin Mitchell, and Wynter The Poet. 

This Utah Film Center discussion is presented in partnership with the Utah Juneteenth Festival, KRCL, and Utahn Convos.
