Our world is shifting rapidly. We need to shift.
We at Artists U want to work through these shifts together. We want to build positive, rigorous conversations about surviving and thriving during and beyond this time of uncertainty.
Artists have much to contribute at this moment of crisis. By stabilizing our lives, we can activate our skills as artists to create things in our community and our world: new art, structures, connections, and futures.

NEW EPISODES EVERY SATURDAY
Overall Purpose:
The purpose of the show is to provide a critical examination of society and culture through the intersectional lens of race, gender, and class; more specifically it seeks to provide a COUNTER-NARRATIVE. The Show encourages a reflective assessment and critique of unique standpoints and their potential contribution to popular discourse.
Objectives:
Nigerian-American rapper and entertainer Fat Tony has maintained a creative resilience and unbridled enthusiasm through the past decade of his career. His musical footprint has left behind a treasure trove of alternative rap. Fat Tony’s sense of humor and courage to experiment mirrors the counter-cultural hip-hop artists who’ve inspired him, like De La Soul, Devin the Dude, and DJ Screw.
The fabric of racism is inextricably woven and constructed into the founding principles of the United States. Racism was done and it can be undone through effective anti-racist education with, and in accountability to the communities most impacted by racism.
This is a marathon, not a sprint.
This online workshop is for white people who need guidance on how they can DIVEST from racism.
Save the date. RSVP instructions will be posted on Facebook soon.

Please join us as we come together to learn about our rights as tenants and workers as local policies change in light of the Covid-19 crisis. Topics include, housing and eviction, unemployment, and worker health and safety.
This training is part of the Fair Development Roundtable's mutual aid initiative to collectivize the work needed to meet community needs while we organize to demand a rent and foreclosure freeze, move all homeless out of shelters and encampments to hotels, and to expand resources for food distribution.
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, the continuous onslaught of Anti-Black racism, and increased visibility and protest against police brutality, it can be difficult to find cause for celebration.
While keeping our eyes on the prize of eradicating racism and ensuring social justice, we must also find ways to tap into Joy!
Please join BRJA as we learn, discuss, and celebrate JUNETEENTH!
Whether you are learning about the holiday or are familiar with it and want to celebrate, we ESPECIALLY welcome Black people to come and celebrate this time with us!
Juneteenth is a day of reflection, a day of renewal, a pride-filled day. It is a moment to appreciate the African American experience. It is inclusive of all races, ethnicities and nationalities. Juneteenth serves as a reference point from which to measure and appreciate the progress and contributions made by African Americans to our society. The Juneteenth Celebration, now in its ninth year, grows larger every year. During the celebration, there are several opportunities to experience art and art performance though exhibitions, artisans, family art activities, music, dance and more.
The Global Theatre Project invites you to a live-stream event celebrating Juneteenth starting at 3:00 and likely going until 6:30
Music, poetry, discussion, performance along with any input you may like to add in the comment boxes will be folded into what we hope will be a relaxed but dynamic experience for everyone.
Artists, educators and workers in the community renewal sector from Baltimore, New York, Los Angles and England share their insightful and generous experience and talent.
