Summary
Germaul Barnes transforms James Baldwin’s searing letter to his nephew into a visceral modern dance experience, where six male dancers confront racism, societal pain, and the weight of Black masculinity through movement. Blending Baldwin’s timeless wisdom with spoken word from historian Charles Reese and Grammy-winning music by Luke Crowder, this powerful ArtWorks production invites audiences to reckon with truth, love, and agency—sparking urgent dialogue for today’s men.
