Explore this act by voicing your appreciation for a loved one\, adding to the gratitude garden\, or experiencing “Unveiling a Forgotten Legacy” an homage to the Black communities that brought Indiana Avenue to life. \nThe foundation of this event is the photography exhibition\, “Unveiling a Forgotten Legacy” which aims to bring awareness to the Black neighborhoods displaced by IUPUI’s expansion. Not only does the exhibit explore themes of gentrification\, redlining\, and the value or marginalized voices\, it embodies the practice of Ubuntu: “I am because we are.” This event invites all of us to honor our family legacies and stories and welcomes all ages to share gratitude for their ancestors through interactive elements\, conversation prompts\, and more. \nNOTE: Attendees are invited to bring an item representing an ancestor they’d like to share their gratitude for.

SUMMARY:The Sisters Are Alright Weekend: A Celebration of the Black Femme Experience - "Centering Sisters: Loud & Unapologetic"
DESCRIPTION:Through live letter readings and community discussion\, The Sisters Are Alright Weekend: A Celebration of the Black Femme Experience amplifies how Black women identify their true selves separate from poisoned narrative. Two gatherings\, two venues\, one awesome time! ($10 per person/per show.) \nFor centuries\, Black American women have been forced to reckon with negative stereotypes rooted in misogynoir. The indefatigable Mammy; the aggressive Sapphire; the wanton Jezebel; and thoughtlessly procreating Matriarch influence how Black women are seen by society and how they see themselves\, disconnecting them from authenticity. Activist Audre Lorde said\, “If I didn’t define myself for myself\, I would be crunched into other people’s fantasies for me and eaten alive.” This is the spirit of The Sisters Are Alright Weekend: A Celebration of the Black Femme Experience\, where participants see what happens when Black women have the freedom to identify their authentic selves–sharing joys\, fears and laughter–apart from demonizing stereotype. \nTwo events explore how Black women identify their authentic selves: \nOn Nov. 11\, a powerful roster of Black women\, including performers such as Kesha Dixon\, Celeste Williams\, and Tatjana Rebelle will take the main stage at The District Theatre for “Dear Black Girl Live II\,” reading frank\, honest and vulnerable letters about the joys and pains of Black girlhood from the book Dear Black Girl: Letters from Your Sisters on Stepping into Your Power by Tamara Winfrey-Harris. \nOn Nov. 12\, festivalgoers are invited to “Centering Sisters: Loud & Unapologetic” at the Madam Walker Legacy Center—a guaranteed raucous panel and audience discussion that tackles topics such as anger\, strength and sex. \nTo purchase tickets\, for “Dear Black Girl Live II\,” visit indydistricttheatre.com. For tickets to “Centering Sisters: Loud & Unapologetic\,” visit madamwalkerlegacycenter.com. \nPartnership between Centering Sisters\, The District Theatre\, and Madam Walker Legacy Center. \nContact event organizers at 219-885-9023 or CenteringSisters@gmail.com. \nWalk-in welcome as seating permits\, but registration is strongly encouraged by Nov. 11 and/or 12\, respectively. \nImage Credit: Scott Weber
