Mareas/Tides at the Foundry Theater

February 14 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm EST

The Global Racial and Social Justice Summit hosted by the Coretta Scott King Center for Intellectual Freedom will feature a dance performance, “Mareas/Tides,” by Denison University dance faculty, Marion Ramirez and Ojeya Cruz Banks, and music faculty, celebrating sacred celestial-ocean relationships through story-telling, song, and improvisation. It traces the storied geographies between and through Puerto Rico, Guåhan to Aotearoa to Alabama to Senegal. The performance braids the artists’ distinct island cosmologies together and embodies the gravitational power of the African diaspora flowing through the Caribbean and Indigenous Pacific worlds. The program features musicians Pete Mills, Timothy Carpenter, Matthew Dixon, and Dean Hullet.
