Kisomo: The Lesson
Spelman College Center for Innovation and the Arts and Department of Dance Performance and Choreography present Kisomo: The Lesson, a powerful work exploring a moment in the lives of siblings when they learn more reasons to have pride in being who they are – children of the African Diaspora. Written and directed by Omelika Kuumba, C’81, with Veronica Byrd, C’80, serving as assistant director, the production highlights themes of identity, heritage and cultural pride.
