A Space for Healing with Samora Pinderhughes
Multidisciplinary
artist
Samora
Pinderhughes
will
lead
a
thought-provoking
lecture
about
the
music,
art,
and
collaboration
behind
his
newest
project
called
The
Healing
Project
at
2
p.m.
on
Tuesday,
March
19,
in
the
Rockwell
Pavilion
at
the
M.D.
Anderson
Library.
Pinderhughes
is
a
composer,
pianist,
and
vocalist
known
for
addressing
sociopolitical
issues
and
heavy
concepts,
such
as
trauma,
healing
and
grief,
with
compassion.
He
will
share
the
expansiveness
of
the
dynamic
project,
which
was
based
on
his
interviews
with
those
who
have
experienced
or
are
experiencing
incarceration
around
the
country
and
involves
sustained
partnerships
with
over
50
artists
working
across
various
mediums.
Pinderhughes
hopes
his
work
will
spark
meaningful
dialogue
about
structural
violence
and
help
audiences
chart
their
own
path
to
healing.
Attendees
can
take
in
voices
and
experience
the
examination
of
the
interconnectivity
of
structural
violence
in
our
society.
The
lectur
e
is
partly
sponsored
by

Woods
Mitchell
Center
