8:30pm . M. Lamar, DESTRUCTION

DESTRUCTION is a song of mourning for what Antony Paul Farley calls “the motionless movement of death through slavery, segregation and neo-segregation.” Drawing on themes of apocalypse, end times, and rapture found in Negro Spirituals, the work explores radical historical expressions, and invokes long held and continued calls to end our white supremacist world order. DESTRUCTION is a futuristic salvaging of the negro spirit destroyed in the flames of the western world.
