Only Skin Deep
This project is all about uplifting and amplifying the creative voices of dancers of color and mixed heritage in Humboldt County. As a society, we have an opportunity to work actively and intentionally towards decommodifying the talent of marginalized cultures. Our artists are proudly of Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian & Mixed Heritage. This specially curated dance show fights against society's tendency towards cultural entitlement. It gives our artists a chance to speak their hearts to their community. It gives our community to take a step back, see and hear them, and benefit from the perspective gained by doing so. It acts as a prompt to continue community conversations around race, privilege and identity.
