Mercy's Spell How many times do we want to dance with the leaves? Breathe with the wind? To be in connection with our truest expression of what our spirits are needing? To slow down and be in connection with the most healing deep breaths of the world around us? Witness Mercy Viola’s spell as they connect to their own freedom and that of what she wishes for herself and collective Black Queer and Trans community. To feel the connection they have with this ancient song of the ocean and trees.	Sidewalk Chronicles In this performance, I use dance, stand up comedy and transformative shenanigans to highlight navigating the city as a young black nonbinary femme.	Mercy's Reel: Emily Waters Open Call The Shed Narrative theater, Afro-diasporic folklore, poetry, and communal healing centering Black queer survivors	Rising Through The Fire A self love and community joy mantra. A public commitment to moving through discomfort into courage, trust and public joy.	Dust Off These Roots These weeds need clearing but the dirt in which they came need not be removed. Dust off the dirt, padding it back into the land and see what has been cleared.
