The Bushwick Starr, in collaboration with Whitney White, invites US-based artists to submit work within the mediums of: video, design, photography, painting, drawing, and other visual forms, speaking to the themes of Black women's mental, physical, and sexual health. These pieces will accompany an installation production of DEFINITION by Whitney White to be held in summer of 2021 at the Mercury Store in New York City. This initiative is an effort to expand artistic opportunities limited by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Selected artists will receive an honorarium. Artists should feel free to submit previously created work, or respond with new work that defies genre boundaries, embraces the tenants of Afro-surrealism, and centers Black women's experience.

The final episode of the Let Me Be Frank series, “Teacher of Possibilities”, describes Frank’s shamanistic apprenticeship, and his understanding of the student-teacher relationship as an experiential, non-western approach to the magical work of evolving the human mind/spirit. Frank explores the roles of the apprentice and teacher in this evolutionary process, and how the students link together with the teacher to create an alternate community within the larger cultural frame. “Teacher of Possibilities” also contains an extended piece from the musical dance jam celebration held shortly after Frank passed away, featuring a remembrance by Frank’s longtime friend and ENT doctor Richard Kerbavaz and a reading of Frank’s last poem, “Wide Open”.
