We are thrilled to share the recording of the third installment of our new live call-in radio series, which took place last night at WNYC. Thank you to our actors: Adepero Oduye and Jumaane Williams for their sensitive and poetic performances of “Our Longing for Inconvenience,” a new essay written by Hanif Abdurraqib for The New Yorker. It sparked an intimate and moving conversation with WNYC listeners about the ephemerality of connection and memory in our digital era. Thank you to everyone who tuned in live and participated in the discussion. We heard about many strategies for cultivating patience and consciousness in order to stay present with ourselves and others in a world of constant distractions.
Special thanks to our partners at WNYC for this exciting step in our collaboration. Stay tuned for details about the next Theater of War - On the Radio broadcast, which will take place in late May.
