We gestate a human-centered value system expressed through creativity.<\/p>\n
We have talents, issues, histories, skills, idiosyncrasies, gifts, neuroses, geniuses.<\/p>\n
We have short hair, nappy hair, black, brown, and blonde hair, dreadlocks, long hair, curls, conks, braids, dyed hair, Mohawks, and ponytails.<\/p>\n
We are black, pink, brown, red, white, yellow.<\/p>\n
We are Gold.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We speak lots of languages, code switching is our mother tongue.<\/p>\n
We are complex, diverse, and for us identity is a verb.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Every show starts with The Circle.<\/p>\n
The Circle sends a message to the psyche that sacred space is being created, a place to tell our individual and collective stories.<\/p>\n
The Circle is the sun and moon and the earth, the big round cycles of cosmic time.<\/p>\n
We replicate whole, integrated human beings when we form a circle: our chests are open, our breath expands, our hearts are exposed.<\/p>\n
The Circle is where we are at the same level. We stand eye to eye, shoulder to shoulder.<\/p>\n
The Circle symbolizes Home, we are reassured that we belong.<\/p>\n
The Circle is unbreakable and unbroken.<\/p>\n
