You are invited to join Edisa Weeks in her journey of making 1,865 roots out of paper and twine for the installation and performance of "3 RITES: Liberty". 1865 represents the last year of legalized chattel slavery in America. The installation will premiere at 651ARTS as part of their inaugural season in their new space in Downtown Brooklyn. While making roots, participants can enjoy a meal and participate in a discussion about the prison industrial complex and prison reform.
