What to Send Up When it Goes Down is a community ritual created in response to the deaths of Black people as a result of racialized violence.
As lines between characters and actors -- as well as observers and observed -- blur, a dizzying series of vignettes builds to a climactic moment in which performance and reality collide, highlighting the absurdity of anti-Blackness in our society. Through facilitation and dialogue we must decide how to cope, resist, and move forward.
