We put together Show Some Color 2 this Tuesday on Halloween Eve. It was a full production team of ten artists who laid a platform for five women to interpret their race to a live audience and to an audience that was also unknown and unseen to them. The night was the culmination of a lot of effort and the common goal of producing art on identity in many different media, but whereas generally the party marks an end, for this project it marked a juncture.

We haven’t even made an official release of the videos and already votes are accumulating here. What this means to me is that without any widespread attraction, these women’s expressions are being shared, viewed, and considered. And soon, we will have a broader sense of each of them along with a particular mind working to interpret them when the Vloggers show up with their footage. I can’t wait.

I think you should vote on the women’s and videographers’ performances. I think you should vote because it tracks the resonance and relevance of one person’s experience to another person’s, proving that the self versus the other is a topic to be negotiated between assertion and reception.

Thanks to everyone who showed up on Tuesday to work, produce, and enjoy. And thanks to everyone who will show up as part of this project by clicking ‘Yes, I hear that!’
