Stage for Debate

With Stage for Debate, the Schomburg launches a series of high profile public debates with stellar thinkers who share their positions on the bandied-about notion of “post-blackness.” In the process, the Schomburg will engage a new generation in the spectator thrill of watching two great thinkers and a great moderator, meet face-to-face, with civility and respect, and passionate delivery and defense of their positions.
