About this event

Freedom: Stories of Black Liberation in partnership with Afro Van Connect highlights and platforms Black voices across what is colonially known as Vancouver, disrupting the cacophonous whiteness and returning sound and soul back into the area that once was home to Hogan’s Alley.

AFRO VAN CONNECT – Just Above the Horizon

Just Above the Horizon is a digital performance for Black liberation. Told in an ensemble of six, this virtual production celebrates the complexities and beauty of the Black experience. From drumming, dance and spoken word to Indigenous African ceremony, this online piece is a multimedia expression of Black resistance. Just Above the Horizon is a digital collaboration between the Vines Art Festival and Afro Van Connect. Black Lives Matter.

Artists: Dae Nneka, Kor Kase, Mariam Barry, Maggie Onedo, Tunji Taylor-Lewis, Jason Bempong, Pedro Chamale,

EDDY VAN WYK – particular

For the particular people whose particular land I invaded without knowing.

A particular gratitude ceremony on a particular land. A particular thank you to a particular people. A particular creation for this particular life in these particular times. By a particular person who is particularly far from her particular home, but has happened to find a particular life here amongst these particular trees and this particular water.

SIOBHAN BARKER – Story-gifts from the Ancestors

We are a part of the land.

I come from a stolen people living on stolen lands.

Stolen people: stolen land: stolen stories

The Ancestors gifted us story:

"Carry our history and our land in your bones, blood and breath"
