Combahee’s Radical Call
Boston Center for the Arts presents Combahee’s Radical Call: Black Feminisms (re)Awaken Boston, a yearlong, multi-platform curatorial project co-curated by Arielle Gray, Cierra Peters, and Jen Mergel, and stewarded by the wisdom of original Combahee River Collective member Demita Frazier.
The project takes the form of a series of public installations and programs that recenter the vital legacy of Black feminism(s), archives and the written word in Boston. Through June 2021, Combahee’s Radical Call: Black Feminisms (re)Awaken Boston invites audiences to engage with our histories, our present and visions for the future.
