Robert King Wilkerson—a member of the Black Panther Party who spent 29 years in solitary confinement in Angola Prison—will discuss the use of speech under the pressure of complete isolation. This presentation is developed with Rigo 23, a longtime collaborator of Wilkerson’s, who will present a video documentary about how he has used language in his visual artwork to support and broaden awareness of figures like Wilkerson, and how the idea of language relates to ideas of truth.
