Black Spatial Relics: Justice as a Regional Identity

What violence are you from? This workshop reconfigures our shared understandings of US regions through the lens of regional histories of racial terror. Participants will engage cultural justice mapping exercises and creative coalition building tactics. The workshop is based in the design thinking of Black Spatial Relics, a new performance residency based at Brown University that supports new works about slavery, justice and freedom at U.S. sites that are local to the transatlantic slave trade.
