ABOUT:
In this intimate, special viewing and somatic experience designed exclusively for Black and Brown women, Emmy-winning storyteller Diahnna Nicole Baxter takes a bold second look at the personal and cultural relevance of her 2019 short film Epigenetics — a story about a Daughter, prone to depression, who learns a family secret and struggles to survive its trauma; but when she turns to her Mother for consolation she realizes how this poisonous pattern has been carried down through generations.

ARTIST NOTE:
“I am so honored for this work to be received by those I intended. Black and brown women — what happens when we are the holders of secrets? What does rupture do to our bodies? How do we repair when the family unit would rather deny...recognizing how these real stories live in the body and how we have the power and agency to reclaim and close the loop of the cycle?”
