Our Freedom Can’t Wait: A Playback Theatre Gathering For Racial Healing

“If now isn’t a good time for the truth I don’t see when we’ll get to it.” – Nikki Giovanni

What if we could…
🤲🏾 Gather together in a room with beautiful food and music?
🤲🏽 Share our stories without any pressure, fear, or judgment?
🤲🏻 Connect authentically, making space for strangers to become allies?

How healing would that be?

For the second year in a row, High Desert Playback and Explora Science Center’s X Studio come together in celebration of the National Day of Racial Healing. This initiative, launched in 2017 by the W.K.Kellogg Foundation, is a time to contemplate our shared values and create the blueprint together for #HowWeHeal from the effects of racism.

Our Freedom Can’t Wait is a community gathering designed by theater artists, facilitators, and cultural strategists to help us speak plain and tell the truth about how individual and systemic racism has impacted us. It is our chance as New Mexicans to share openly, listen generously, and practice radical empathy.
