Its a WAve

Asbury Park NJ, This performance is a practice of ritual creation. in Remembrance of the Red summer of 1919 . A time in american history given its name because of the amount of violence against black american . one event in particular happened in july of 1919 on the south side of chicago where a young black boy was stoned to death for floating too close to the white beach .

first we dug a hole in the middle of the beach

then we let the hole bake for 2 hours

then we walked around the circle 7 times

we passed out cards and pencils so onlookers could contribute positive thoughts and affirmation as seeds to be planted in this new foundation of love and peace .

each performer took turns running to the ocean to fill a bucket of water. as each person returned they watered the intentions being watered by the other performers this continued for 2 hours
