A dream come true to host Justin Mann, Aimee Bahng, Yogita Goyal, Glenda Carpio, & Mary Pat Brady @johnshopkinssph.bsky.social. I’ve been deeply influenced by their work & it was magical to have them in conversation for “Race, Aesthetics, Speculation.” I’m so grateful to them and their amazing work!
