In this hour-long session, Guadalupe Maravilla speaks about his work on immigration detention, trauma, and healing through sound. I presented on my exploration of how Black rage, born of chronic waiting, can be a transformative power. From the session description: 
A businessperson waits for a delayed subway. A wrongly convicted prisoner awaits justice. A refugee waits for their asylum case. A nation waits for the promised boon of economic development. The world waits for a vaccine. Nature waits for its exploitation to end. Waiting is usually what we do between things. It is the space between two destinations, an empty and anxious time to fill with distractions. But when we look more closely, we see that waiting is also an activity in itself, bristling with energy, uncertainty, and inequality. What does the condition of waiting reveal about us, our world, and the natural environment that sustains it? This series of eight sessions offer glimpses into the thought and practices of artists, architects, historians, and theorists who grapple with this question.
