The extraordinary scale of the antiracism protests that took over U.S. cities and spread rapidly around the globe beginning in May has conferred a sense of urgency to struggles against the injustices that pervade our societies. In this spirit, this issue of ARTMargins presents Alioune Diop’s “Art and Peace,” written on the occasion of the First World Festival of Negro Arts, in Dakar, Senegal, 1966 (republished here for the first time), with an introduction by Lauren Taylor. A central figure in the Négritude movement, Diop was aware that “real peace” entails justice. The featured articles in this issue include Caterina Preda’s reconsideration of the establishment of Socialist Realist art in Romania, and Meghan Forbes’s focus on the Czech avantgarde of the interwar years, including a plea to acknowledge the significance and originality of Czech Dada. Iftikhar Dadi and Elizabeth Dadi’s Artist Project Jugaad tackles informality as the determinant mode of labor in the periphery of capitalism, while this issue’s review article presents Ghalya Saadawi’s take on Chad Elias’s book Posthumous Images: Contemporary Art and Memory Politics in Post–Civil War Lebanon (Duke University Press, 2018).
