Welcome to Soular Rock, where freedom is a frequency. In this “call and response” performance, Amari Johnson uses his book Under a Black Star as an entry point into a communal exploration of Black autonomy, marronage, and cultural memory through conversation and live musical performance. What to expect: – A genre-bending live show blending rock, reggae, and hip-hop – Reflections from Under a Black Star: The Maroon Impulse in New Orleans – Interactive talk-back on freedom, memory, and community
