An expansive lexicon of words, terms, concepts, and ideas that takes the multiplicity of Black life as its point of departure. Thinking from Black: A Lexicon is an unusual reference book. Its contributors--the Practicing Refusal Collective--are visual artists, poets, dancers, historians, writers, architects, painters, theorists, activists, anthropologists, filmmakers, educators, and musicians. Each has engaged with the idea of a lexicon of Black living and taken up the invitation to think from Black in relation to their own medium.
