James Spooner in conversation with Johnny Damm on AFROPUNK, anger, and other things

The Institute of the Arts and Sciences invites you to a conversation with filmmaker and graphic novelist James Spooner about his latest graphic novel, moderated by cartoonist Johnny Damm. It Starts with Anger: A Punk Beginning. An AFROPUNK Ending tells the origin story of the multi-million-dollar AFROPUNK festival—beginning not with big stages or brand sponsorship, but with one mixed-race teenager’s search for belonging in the nineties New York City punk scene. The conversation will be followed by a book signing by Spooner. Local author and punk historian John Malkin will also be signing his new book, Punk Spirit! – An Oral History of Punk Rock, Spirituality, and Liberation, and Johnny Damm will have his latest comic, I’m a Cop: Real Life Horror Comics No. 3 available.
