Event Details

The Ubuntu Storytellers, an ensemble of performance artists from across the Diaspora, are joined by guests who will tell personal stories of allyship. Contemporary stories of needing an ally, of being an ally and of the second guessing that sometimes comes after. Stories of being imperfect, unsure. Stories of being heard by the right someone at the right time. We tell these stories to celebrate when we step up and step in, as well as to acknowledge that sometimes it can be difficult to show up, speak up. Mostly we tell so we can feel together the impact of "the long echo of a moment." Sponsored by the NewAlliance Foundation in New Haven, CT. 

This is a hybrid program; patrons have the option of attending in-person at the library or virtually on Zoom. If you plan on attending via Zoom, please use the meeting information below to access the program:
