How are games vehicles for justice? Join us for an interactive play session led by Cassandra Jones. Our game will take place in the fictional Nina Simone School for Girls (and Monsters), an exclusive all-Black girls prep school. Come and explore how play and worldbuilding can be used as an incubator for revolutionary thought as we pair Ruha Benjamin’s Imagination: A Manifesto with Monsterhearts 2, “a story game about the messy lives of teenage monsters.”  Attendees will receive a free copy of Imagination: A Manifesto, while supplies last. 

Free & open to the 18+ public. Presented in partnership with NCBAE.
