Public Hives, beekeeping in Miami – documentary.

The Public Hives are supported by the local Miami Foundation. The project is designed to inspire community members to learn alongside one another while observing and learning from other communities: bees!

Terremoto published a review of Coffee, Rhum, Sugar & Gold: A Postcolonial Paradox
” … a key driver of the exhibition is the theory that colonialism has continued to exist in other forms, and is in fact spreading through the export of soft power, the use of military force, the control of international financial and banking mechanisms, as well as the increase in globalization.”

Hyperallergic reviews Coffee, Rhum, Sugar & Gold
Zoe Samudzi‘s A Caribbean Present Steeped in a Colonial Past reviewed Coffee, Rhum, Sugar & Gold: A Postcolonial Paradox for Hyperallergic. The show curated by Larry Ossei-Mensah and Dexter Wimberly , currently, at the Museum of the African Diaspora, through August 11, 2019.
The emergent themes of the show can be broadly cast into three categories (though none of the artists fit singularly into any one): corporeality (interpretations of politics around the body), place (examinations of place, space, and time), and religion and spirituality.
