Reading is the act of looking at written words to understand a general message, while studying is a focused, active process meant to memorize, analyze, and retain information for long-term use.. Key word. USE…………

Thank you Jonathan Peter Jackson

Whewwwwww Antwonette Shade Antwonette Shade had the crowd in tears and the people on their feet. Such a special sista, comrade, healer, organizer and spoken word artist.

This piece was more than a poem, it’s was the epitome of no one left behind. It was a written and spoken declaration that reminded us that we need ALL US… WE ARE EACH OTHERS HARVEST…

This is just a snippet but more to come

The Trials Davis

Workshop I: Monologues of Freedom : On the Move

This interactive theatre workshop invites participants to explore the depth of human emotion, identity, and collective liberation through theatrical expression, movement, improvisation, and historical storytelling. Using the history and philosophy of the MOVE Organization as a central case study, participants will examine how theatre has historically been used both as a tool of oppression and as a vehicle for resistance, healing, and self-determination.

The workshop culminates in participants embodying themes of courage, resilience, and freedom through performance.

A revolutionary embodiment workshop that combines somatic techniques, theater, and revolution.

You can tell how you would’ve responded then by how you responded now. Your body knows more than your mind does.

The revolutionary love language : organize !!

Praxis : The practical application, practice, or enactment of a theory, idea, or method, rather than just thinking about it.

Books are great and study is a necessity but are you outside.

We will not win if we only talk to each other.

It’s very contradictory for a man to teach about the murder in corporate capitalism, to isolate and expose the murderers behind it, to instruct that these madmen are completely without stops, are licentious, totally depraved — and then not make adequate preparations to defend himself from the madman’s attack. Either they don’t really believe their own spiel or they harbor some sort of subconscious death wish. ~ GEORGE JACKSON THE DRAGON

Join Some Things Must Be Heard: Spitting & Politicking for the We Are Each Other’s Harvest Block & Build Cultural Organizing Gathering.

We are gathering artists, organizers, healers, spiritual strategists, memory workers, narrative leaders, and everyone who is willing to confront and block far-right attacks on Black communities and Black youth in St. Louis.

Together, we will co-create a powerful cultural intervention designed to shift hearts and minds from apathy, isolation, and distraction into deep connection, active engagement, and collective belonging.

We are living in a time where the distant between care and connection is severed by cellphones and social media.

The same bullets that shot Baby Kohen Riley Shot 3 teenagers in St. Louis Country. We know all too well that “FIRE WORKS”

Continuing from An Artist Duty and Expanding into COLLECTIVE ACCOUNTABILITY..

Intentional, intergenerational, work that understand intersectionality. If we are to get free we must, WE MUST understand, acknowledge, and accept that it will take all of us to defeat the “ ENEMIES” White Supremacy, Capitalism, Colonialism, Sexism, Homophobia, Transphobia, Ableism, Ageism and Racism, and Fascism.

We cannot afford to throw each other away. The cost is too HIGH.

Deep Bow to everyone who joined us for the inaugural Long Live the Dragon Black August 2 Day Convening. From 10 am - 5 pm we studied, practiced, skilled up, connected, laughed, cried, and assess our individual and collective roles in the struggle for liberation.

There is a dragon that lives inside of each one of us and it’s our responsibility to make space for it.

Grateful for these two brilliant, creative, revolutionary beings. The Long Live the Dragon Black August Convening Day 1 was exactly what it was supposed to be because of their presence, intentionality and love for the people.

Thank you both for being who you are.

These Quarterly Conjuring Gatherings are spaces for connection, ancestral veneration, intimacy, political/poet-litical education, revival, cleansing, and mobilization. The artists that grace the STMBH: Spitting & Politicking stage understand the Assignment. Shift the narrative, Educate the folks, and move the people to take action.

Soooooo do we have your contact information is always the question?? Don’t just feel the revolutionary force for 2 hrs, join us.
