What do jazz pianist Oscar Peterson, dancer and choreographer Len Gibson, actor and playwright Trey Anthony, hip-hop artist Kardinal Offishall, and Caribbean carnivals across the country have in common? They are all rooted in a Black creative practice, historical and contemporary. Black Creative Practices will expose students to case studies of creatives across multiple genres (music, dance, theatre, carnival, media, and the visual arts) unpacking their origins, form and style, as well as contributions.
