Nevertheless, she persisted (and danced)
Building on the Gentle Prowess Deliberations project, Nevertheless, she persisted (and danced) is a durational art performance proposing a decentering of violence through a feminist lens, thinking Fifth Wave feminism, #niunamenos, finding allies, moments of repair and dance in the same space. Nevertheless… gestures beyond the politics of emergency as a call to imagine the power-strength of composite languages and solidarity.
