Another giant transitioned. A brilliant artist!

Lorraine O'Grady lifted me up with her intellect, her wit, her nerve. This assignment came at a point in my life when I needed it and didn't even know. She was a blessing.

I am saddened to know Lorraine has passed, and I am endlessly grateful to her. She lit flames that will never go out. 🖤
The Audacity of Lorraine O’Grady
In wake of her tragic passing today, we revisit our 2024 interview with the renegade and eternally punk-rock conceptual artist.

I also participated in a roundtable discussion reflecting on the creation of the Abolition in Theater and Performance zine with @ltridley.bsky.social @courtcoll.bsky.social (and other fantastic people who I’m not sure are on here). I’m excited to read the whole issue!

NEW PUBLICATION ALERT! Please read and check out my new article in Theatre Journal, whereby I put forth my concept of Black theatrical geographies in conversation with Katherine McKittrick and Ruth Wilson Gilmore.

DM if you don’t have access and would like me to email you a copy!

Great guide on the praxis and theory of GenAI refusal as a strategy and tactic. Even for those embracing GenAI, this guide offers an excellent boundary-setting process.

Also, three researchers I respect immensely.
