BLACK LIKE ME:

AN EXPLORATION OF
THE WORD NIGGER

CREATED BY

​

JADE SOLOMON-CURTIS

Black Like Me is a collection of Solo dance pieces choreographed and performed by Jade Solomon-Curtis. Many pieces involve integrated video, with Animations created by Daniel Barnes that bring life to

previously still images. One piece, titled Integrated Panel, involves a discussion panel of seated guests: often activists in the local community, who discuss their views, experiences, and histories involving racism. The dance is a 15-20 minute improvised piece that is seeded directly from the conversation, in real-time.
