'32 Black History Months & Counting' & '33 Black History Months & Counting'
Performance (length variable, up to 35 mins), 2025 ongoing.
These are reflections on 33 years of being alive and trying to remember. What happens when the body says 'oops I forgot'?
33 Black History Months & Counting is an ongoing memoir of a middle-class black woman, hard-worker, former 'neek', former partygoer & current epileptic. An experimental, tragic, comic, musical performance exploring collective Black History & personal memory loss, intelligence & respectability, and the labour that underpins it all.
'Do you remember
The 21st night of December?
I’m actually not sure I remember
There’s damage to my neural pathways.'
