SUMMARY:What to Send Up When it Goes Down
DESCRIPTION: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\, observers and observed blur\, a dizzying series of vignettes build to a climactic moment where performance and reality collide. Meant to disrupt the pervasiveness of anti-blackness and acknowledge the resilience of Black people throughout history\, this theatrical work uses parody\, song\, movement\, and audience participation to create a space for catharsis\, reflection\, cleansing\, and healing. \nThis production takes place at two venues: Hibernian Hall and The Ex.\nRecommended for ages 16+. \nHibernian Hall\n184 Dudley St.\nRoxbury\, MA 02119 \nThe Ex\n64 Brattle Street\nCambridge\, MA 02138

SUMMARY:Hub New Music
DESCRIPTION:Hub New Music (flute\, clarinet\, violin\, cello) showcases 21st-century composers\, including Robert Honstein’s “Soul House” with Urbanity Dance with choreography by Haley Day performed by Urbanity dancers Meg Anderson\, Haley Day\, and Jacob Regan.\nHub New Music was praised by Cleveland Classical for “the sense of care — and even love — that [the group] brings to their playing. This level of deep musicianship requires enough time and rehearsal for the meaning of the music to seep into the musicians’ pores.” \nUrbanity Dance has been a wonderful partner for several Celebrity Series public projects and special workshops\, and the professional company takes the Neighborhood Arts stage for the first time in this exciting multidisciplinary collaboration. \nTickets are $5\, to benefit the Urbanity Dance youth programs. \nhttps://www.celebrityseries.org/productions/hub-new-music/

After the showcase\, we’ll have a debrief/panel with the artists. Questions are welcome at the end but we first want to hear from the artists about their experiences\, and what they want us to know about their struggle. They deserve a space to have their voices heard. \nBeing an ally is important. Please come and hear from the marginalized folks in our society\, and support their art. \nProgram: (Subject to change) \n5:30pm-6:30pm \nShowcasing of art.

SUMMARY:RoxFilm: Fair Game: Surviving A 1960 Georgia Lynching
DESCRIPTION:Directed By Clennon L. King (USA\, 63min) \nAs JFK was making a run for the White House in the spring of ’60\, 24-year-old Navy vet James Fair\, Jr. of New Jersey joined a friend on a road trip home. But their arrival in segregated Early County\, Georgia could not have been more ill-timed. It coincided with the alleged rape and murder of an 8-year-old Black girl\, prompting authorities to finger Fair as the fall guy. Less than three days later\, with no jury present or lawyer to defend him — no physical evidence\, autopsy\, or court transcript — a judge set a date for Fair with Georgia’s electric chair. That’s when Alice Fair mounted an unforgettable 26-month campaign in a fight for her son’s life. \nRoxbury-based filmmaker Clennon L. King dedicates the documentary to the 24 known Black men who were lynched in Early County\, Georgia between 1881 and 1960\, and to his father\, Georgia’s legendary civil rights attorney C.B. King\, who tried to prevent Fair from becoming the 25th victim. \n—-\nYou can also purchase a $25 Day Pass to see all three films at Hibernian Hall (Fair Game\, Codeswitching\, and Protect\, Serve\, & Care): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/roxfilm-hibernian-hall-day-pass-tickets-62452964498

SUMMARY:Hibernian Hall presents: Bilal Live
DESCRIPTION:presents \n \n \nIf there was one R&B artist for whom the neo-soul categorization seemed limiting\, it was Philadelphia native Bilal. None of his recordings resembled the sycophantic worship of soul artists who thrived in the ’60 and ’70s\, and it wasn’t just because his voice — classically trained\, capable of singing opera in seven languages — was so unique. While some inspirations were detectable\, his recordings were wholly modern and became increasingly creative. His individuality led to being dropped from a major label\, and he went several years without releasing any solo material. Through evangelism from his peers and word of mouth from his early fans\, Bilal gained an insatiable following and was supported by sympathetic independent labels\, where he was finally able to thrive creatively.\n\nBilal Website \nhttp://bilalmusic.com/#bilal-tour \nBilal Facebook \nhttps://www.facebook.com/BILALSOLIVER \nBilal Twitter \n@Bilal \nBilal Instagram \nbilalmusic

SUMMARY:The State of Black Music and the Arts across Greater Boston
DESCRIPTION:Historically within black communities and families\, music and the arts have served to be the most powerful forms for communication\, morale boosters\, and influencers of hope during the most difficult circumstances.

IN addition to solo performances\, he has appeared with the Ictus Ensemble (Brussels\, BE)\, Ensemble L’Arsenale (IT)\, zone Experimental (CH)\, Basel Sinfonietta (CH)\, New York City Ballet\, Ensemble LPR\, and Orchestra of St. Luke’s (US). A fierce advocate for contemporary arts\, Woods has collaborated and worked with a wide range of artists ranging from the likes of Louis Andriessen\, Elliott Carter\, Heinz Holliger\, G. F. Haas\, Helmut Lachenmann\, Klaus Lang\, and Peter Eötvos to Peter Gabriel\, Sting\, Lou Reed\, Dame Shirley Bassey\, and Rachael Yamagata to such visual artists as Ron Athey\, Vanessa Beecroft\, Jack Early\, Adam Pendleton\, and Aldo Tambellini. \n– June 6 @ 7:00PM\, Hibernian Hall\nBeginning at 6:30pm\, there will be self-guided “edu-stations”: interactive\, hand-on learning stations focused on the historic 1968 Memphis sanitation strike that birthed the I AM A MAN declaration. \n\nI Am Not Your Negro\nFree film screening \nA free screening of I Am Not Your Negro by Raoul Peck\, a documentary about writer and activist James Baldwin.  \nLight food and drinks provided.  \nAbout the film: Master filmmaker Raoul Peck envisions the book James Baldwin never finished\, Remember This House. The result is a radical\, up-to-the-minute examination of race in America\, using Baldwin’s original words and flood of rich archival material. I Am Not Your Negro is a journey into black history that connects the past of the Civil Rights movement to the present of #BlackLivesMatter. It is a film that questions black representation in Hollywood and beyond. And\, ultimately\, by confronting the deeper connections between the lives and assassination of Medgar Evers\, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr.\, Baldwin and Peck have produced a work that challenges the very definition of what America stands for. \n“Whatever you think about the past and future of what used to be called “race relations” this movie will make you think again\, and may even change your mind.” – A.O. Scott\, The NYTimes \n– June 7 @ 6PM\, Hibernian Hall \n\nFinale Concert: I AM A MAN\nFeaturing spoken word\, dance\, and music performed by Castle of our Skins \nFeaturing spoken word\, dance\, multimedia\, and music by Black male composers\, including a world premiere by Castle of our Skins 2018-2019 Composer-in-Residence Brian Raphael Nabors.
