The Dark Girl Chronicles

The Dark Girl Chronicles is a ritual-play cycle designed to crystallize in collective memory the stories of three Black women warriors against state violence—Diamond Reynolds, Rachel Jeantel, and Islan Nettles. Part Yoruba or Bantu-Kongo sacred story, part communal ritual, and part documentary-manifesto, the three parts of the cycle—Chronicle X: Windows, Chronicle Y: Sugar, and Chronicle Z: Feathers—use court transcripts, police records, and media coverage to analyze the violent interpretive tactics of white supremacy and to restore these events to their own meanings. Deploying Black feminist technologies of ritual, magic, and spell, The Dark Girl Chronicles traverses deep ocean and deep space, finds difference in the darks of wombs, snail shells, and caves, and holds space for the interiority, vulnerability, and necessary dignity of dark girls.
