Join us at Baldwin & Co. for a powerful and timely author talk with acclaimed historian Kellie Carter Jackson, as she discusses her groundbreaking new book, We Refuse: A Forceful History of Black Resistance.
Named one of the Best Books of 2024 by Smithsonian, Kirkus, Ms. Magazine, and more, We Refuse is a bold, unflinching examination of how Black people have resisted white supremacy in all its forms—nonviolent and violent, loud and quiet, visible and unseen.
In this eye-opening conversation, Carter Jackson will explore:
Whether you’re a student of history, an activist, an educator, or simply someone seeking to deepen your understanding of liberation movements, this evening will challenge assumptions, expand perspectives, and inspire action.
🔥 This is not just a talk—it’s a call to community. Come ready to listen, engage, and reflect on the legacies and possibilities of Black resistance in America and beyond.
✨ Books will be available for purchase and signing.
🎟️ Free and open to the public. Seating is limited—RSVP now to reserve your spot!
