The Symposium of Noetics is a Black intellectual community that exists to preserve and archive Black knowledge. Through dialectical discourse and decolonization the symposium exists as a living record of Black consciousness. This community is for mystics, visionaries, prophets, thought-leaders, philosophers, artists, community organizers, spiritual practitioners, occultists, academic and private-study intellectuals who actively engage in archiving, research, and the liberation of the Black psyche.
