SUMMARY:Remote Rap Sessions - The Next Black
DESCRIPTION:Register for the Zoom Discussion \n\n\n\nThe second session of TRLN’s Remote Rap Sessions will be about the documentary The Next Black – A film about the future of clothing. The documentary is freely available for streaming on YouTube. Registration helps with our planning and is much appreciated. You can register before and during the discussion and will receive the meeting link as soon as you register. \n\n\n\nThe Next Black is a documentary that brings together designers\, innovators and leaders from around the globe for an open discussion on the concept of clothing. It probes beyond what we are wearing to explore how we produce clothes\, how we interact with them and how we care for them. Each person we interviewed has a fresh perspective on the future of the clothing industry – and all of them are using their passions to fuel change. \n\n\n\nTali Brennan\, Consultant\, Sustainability\, Energy and Climate Change for WSP USA (and graduate of Duke’s Nicholas School of the Environment)\, Adam Rogers\, NC State Libraries Head of Making and Innovation Studio\, and Greg Tourino\, NC State Libraries Lead Librarian for Textiles & Engineering Research will co-facilitate this discussion.
