The Red Lineage Project

Based on one of my poems which I adapted to allow others to include their voices. When performed, the Red Lineage poems echo and overlap, thereby fostering a sense of community despite real and/or perceived social and demographic barriers. Within the Red Lineage, everyone is red—a metaphor that invokes the idea of the bloodline. See PRESS here.
