Here is the Imagination of the Black Radical

| Resistance Takes Place
KulturBahnhof Kassel

Junkanoo - a carnival-like form of celebration in the Bahamas - is a culture with innovative costume designs. Aesthetic and political intertwine as we follow the Shell Saxon Superstars in the year-long production of costumes. Here is Black radical imagination, a resistance, a uniquely Bahamian identity. So who is archiving Junkanoo for future generations?
