Their newest project commissioned eight playwrights in 2020 to write about the multiple pandemics impacting their communities. EBT’s artistic leadership Aamera Siddiqui\, Eliza Rasheed and Suzy Messerole will share how invisibility impacts BIPOC students when the canon taught does not represent them and they will also share their approach to creating a theater ecosystem that is more accessible.  Join us to imagine possibilities for decentering whiteness in theater education\, and to engage in an arts activity to inspire students to create their own stories. \n3:15 p.m. – 4:15 p.m.\nSouLit Yoga with Kenna Cottman \n4:15 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nEvaluating the Syllabus in Terms of DEI\nIn her essay Navigating Anti-racism in an Anti-black Landscape\, dancer and educator Nyama McCarthy-Brown examines the ways in which she has upheld structures of whiteness and racism in her own teaching practice.

Adam Harris and written by Brittany K. Allen: Meg and Drew\, an interracial couple\, are thrown into crisis when Meg’s uncle discovers Drew belongs to the family that owned Meg’s relatives in an antebellum Kentucky. What are the ways love can and cannot transcend both modern social barriers and historical power structures? Meg and Drew must learn if it is possible to forgive\, champion\, or fully understand a person who is beloved but fundamentally other. **Please note that the Jungle Theater will be requiring masks for audience members\, as well as proof of vaccination or proof of negative Covid-19 test within 72 hours of showtime.
