Jackson presents A Second Sight: How the Wonder and Vision of Black Mediamakers Push America Toward FreedomIn conversation with Soraya Nadia McDonaldRenowned media scholar Sarah J. Jackson presents A Second Sight, a brilliant, urgent and illuminating appraisal that situates Black mediamakers at the vanguard of telling the American story. Since the nation’s founding, Black Americans have had a unique perspective on the U.S. experience—what W.E.B. Du Bois called a “second sight”—that reveals the truth about the nation to itself. As Jackson charts in this bold and daring masterwork, at the center are an extraordinary cast of Black journalists, photographers, filmmakers, radio hosts, podcasters and other mediamakers who have drawn on the visionary tradition of second sight to advance democracy and broaden our most fundamental American values. A candid grappling with a discordant thread in the American fabric, in tracing a bolder vision for the nation, Jackson presents a way forward. Cultural critic Soraya Nadia McDonald joins Jackson for a reading and discussion before an audience Q&A and signing. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/brooklyn/sarah-j-jackson-with-soraya-nadia-mcdonald/100001990202013798 - **Event Categories**: photography, storytelling - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour - Location: Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 37.67, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Brooklyn - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene - **lat**: 40.6861766 - **long**: -73.9745672 - **full address**: Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene, 686 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Sarah J.
