- Society & Culture
I am back! Welcome to Season 2 of "Abolitionist Dreamscapes". This season I am delving more into what it means to dream in the present as we all face the crossroads of our life and society. And to kick this off I am talking with Tracie D. Hall about the "Rootwork of the Crossroads" as she is someone who works with the sacred and mundane in her own liberatory work.
Tracie D. Hall is an artist, curator, librarian, cultural worker and founder of Rootwork Gallery (2015-2019). A native of Los Angeles and the first generation in her family to be born outside the rural South, she has lived and worked in Chicago for nearly two decades. In 2023, her lifelong commitment to the right to read and advocacy for intellectual freedom and literacy resulted in Hall being named to both the TIME100 list of the most influential people of 2023 and her being selected to receive the Medal for Freedom of Speech and Free Expression from the Franklin D. Roosevelt Institute, an honor previously bestowed on Representative John Lewis. Hall is currently a visiting scholar at the University of London.
You can find Tracie D. Hall via The Rootwork Gallery on IG and FB!
