Black imaginations in Black geography

Soon, suggested the posts from Instituto GUETTO (acronym for Urban Management for Entrepreneurship, Work and Organized Technology) and Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) with their invitation to imagine: an African library, a botanical pharmacy, an architecture school, a Black Museum of Tomorrow!

The invitation was to meet January 13 at the Casa do Nando to be part of a Roda de Criação: Imaginando o Nosso Futuro Preto na Pequena África (Creativity Circle to Imagine Our Black Future in Little Africa).

The idea came from Instituto GUETTO and the Harvard University GSD Pequena África Initiative, HUPAI, created by Brazilian student Beatriz Sousa Borges and Sara Zewde, together with a small team. A Harvard GSD graduate, now a professor there, Zewde is principal architect at her Harlem NY design studio specializing in public spaces.
