#DreadScott presents his current project, #SlaveRebellionReenactment (SRR), at our Fellowship Workshop at #The8thFloor. SRR is a conceptual community-engaged artwork that will reenact the largest rebellion of enslaved people in American history - Louisiana’s German Coast Uprising of 1811, involving hundreds of re-enactors on the outskirts of #NewOrleans, in the same locations where the 1811 rebellion occurred. #ABOGFellows #abladeofgrass #sociallyengagedart (at The 8th Floor)
