HERStory of HIStoryHERstory of HIStory is aligned with Byrd’s chapbook, Mahogany: A Love Letter To Black. The show is an exploration of the past, the present, and confessions of Adam and Eve after their footprints disappeared from the garden. We are what they made us. This is what happens when breath meets heart unabashedly.
