Chimurenga has occupied the Performa 15 Hub with the Chimurenga Library, a library-of-people that engage trade as both the process of buying, selling, or exchanging goods or services and the practice of exchanging ideas, imaginaries, perceptions and vocabularies.
We kick off with a conversation between Chimurenga editor, Ntone Edjabe and Chimurenga Library NYC residents, Roger Francis of the Brooklyn-based African Record Centre and Yoruba Book Center (established 1971); artist and educator Nontsikelelo Mutiti, who has set up an African hair braiding salon in the space; and poet, choreographer, and Afrosonics archivist Harmony Holiday.
