A dance-based performance ritual, wash’d// explores both the violence of misogyny and the strength of sisterhood as they relate to women of color—past, present and future. The piece centers and celebrates the rich history of activism that was and is present during the founding and flourishing of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) who organized during the Civil Rights Movement.  wash’d// is an embodied meditation on women’s social and political power as a means to highlight sisterhood and its role in dismantling systems of patriarchy, heteronormativity, misogynoir as women and femmes unite and organize for social transformation.
