“ Now more than ever , we need this . We need art that is collective , functional and committing . Voices will be a dedication to the politics and artistic autonomy of both the process and project . If you love a Black woman , create more space for her to create . If there is a story she holds that can set her free , help her hold it . May all Black women write ( or speak ), free of grammatical straightjackets and forms that muzzle our telling . If there is a sister we know with a powerful story who cannot read or write it , offer to transcribe it for her . We need everyone willing and able in this effort .
May this art piece be a path through doubt , frustration , and despair . May it be a reckoning and a revelation . Tell your people . Help us carry our voices so that they may show us the way .” ✨✨✨
WORDS FROM @ AJAMONET , OUR ARTISTIC CREATIVE DIRECTOR
