Black Social Change Utah 2.0

BSCU2 addresses racism through storytelling, images, music, film and movement. Participants reveal what sustains “hope” again and again in the face of unsolicited adversity and their belief that social change, such as attaining equality, is possible. Themes of education, resilience, community, and faith propel the project, unwrapping the key to a culture whose very foundation is built upon a forged resiliency and grace. 

 

BSCU2 uses the voices and experiences of the Utah’s Black and African American community, which comprise 1.8% of Utah’s total population. Their stories and experiences form the framework for this work and builds on history, current events, storytelling, empathy, compassion and what it is to be human.
