In honor of PTP’s release “The Wages of Being Black is Death,” a mixtape by Kelpa & DeForrest Brown, Jr., we welcome rhythmanalyst and media theorist DeForrest Brown, Jr. and philosopher Ariel Valdez, who will be presenting the lecture-performance “talk of racism—simmer with perverse humor,” discussing rhythm as a praxis emptied of syntax and the trajectory of the Black Body as a maladjusted subject in the habitus of everyday life.
