Co-presented by the Environmental Justice Working Group, the Notations in Science Communication and Cultural Rhetorics, and Stanford LivePlease join us for an informal gathering of community at Stanford’s magical O’Donohue Family Farm to meet Ghanaian musician and composer Okaidja Afroso. The Portland-based artist draws from the ecological knowledge of the Indigenous Gadangme fishermen of Ghana’s Atlantic Gulf of Guinea to grapple with what it means to commune with the spirits of the sea in the face of climate change and modernization.
Through conversation and music, this event will be a celebration at the intersection of culture, environmental justice, sustainability, and art.
Later in the evening on Nov 11, Okaidja Afroso brings his new multimedia performance
Jaku Mumor to Stanford Live’s Bing Concert Hall.
This event is free and open to all.
