A "New-Negro-Spiritual" Paradigm
Warren B. Cooper
February 1, 2025
A “New-Negro-Spiritual” Paradigm: An examination of the Negro-Spiritual Tradition through a trans-optic* lens that focuses beyond the surface of its cultural origin to investigate:
- The nature of the shell that nurtured the Pearl of that Tradition
- The paradox of that Pearl
- The relevance of all that on humanity today.
* – Trans-optic is “Microscopic with a Spiritual, Scientific and Metaphysical tint of perspective.”
We will transpose the power of the Negro Spiritual Tradition into a Present Day Framing of Freedom and Deliverance.
It will be a time of Interactive Drama, Lecture, Music and Singing (we’ll see about Dancing)
An Informational – Instigation-al – Inspirational Conversation about identity and belonging in a new paradigm of Freedom.
The presentation of Spiritual – Historical and Prophetic Propositions that reach beyond Culture and Race…to look into the New Face of Freedom…and Seeing Ourselves…as One.
