Graffiti (Interview w/ Antar Fierce)


Listen Later

This week, I am sharing my conversation with Antar Fierce, a graffiti historian, educator and archivist to learn about the history of graffiti, especially writing. Graffiti is loosely defined as words, drawings, or writings in public view - something that humans have created since the dawn of time. Writing developed first in the 1960s in Philadelphia and then New York City. We cover that early history, Antar’s start as a writer, his move to Atlanta, the early writing community here Atlanta’s first crew and how crews are structured and what ethics govern the culture.
