A soul-nourishing breakfast catching up with the brilliant #RosaJoshi ❤️ Thanks to Jaya for stopping by to say hi & using your Gen Z selfie skills for this pic✌️ #OSFfamily #AlwaysMyDirector #ShesStuckWithMeForever (at The Highland Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQU3tSHD16r/?utm_medium=tumblr

What was particularly special about #SnowInMidsummerOSF being a part of @osfashland’s 2021 season was reuniting & reminiscing with #OSFfamily all month long. So this last event was the best way to cap it all off bc Rosa Joshi— who directed me in #HenryVOSF the same year as Snow— made this reunion happen with playwright Frances Ya-Chu Cowhig, director @justinaudibert, & dramaturg @amramalama where we got to speak to her Seattle U students for their OSF Virtual Residency. Not to mention crossing zoom paths with other #OSFfamily participants, especially @gwenturos who helped coordinate this amazing weekend, & @anniepaul31 with whom I got to create & teach an Acting Shakespeare workshop! Grateful to know these exceptional humans & artists. And hopeful that I will one day be back in the same physical space with them again. ❤️ (at Oregon Shakespeare Festival) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPzB-F_jl9p/?utm_medium=tumblr

#Repost @osfashland with @get_repost ・・・ ABLEISM a·ble·ism \ ˈābə-ˌli-zəm \ noun A system that places value on people’s bodies and minds based on societally constructed ideas of normalcy, intelligence, excellence and productivity. These constructed ideas are deeply rooted in anti-Blackness, eugenics, colonialism and capitalism. This form of systemic oppression leads to people and society determining who is valuable and worthy based on a person’s appearance and/or their ability to satisfactorily [re]produce, excel and "behave." You do not have to be disabled to experience ableism. This is a working definition by Talila "TL" Lewis, Dustin Gibson, and other Disabled Black and negatively racialized folk; updated January 2020 I uphold my responsibility to lift up brown and black voices. I believe most white folks have let down our friends family and colleagues in some way. I have heard one dear friend say that when she speaks “Black Queers Lives Matter,” some say, “one thing at a time.” The same goes for disabled black lives. Black lives don’t matter, unless ALL black lives matter. My a goal is to form a coalition with other disabled stage managers. I would like to up lift black disabled stage managers. @cripcampfilm #DisabledPeopleForBlackLives #OSFTogether #OSFFamily #ADA30onO #ADA30atOSF #ADA30 https://www.instagram.com/p/CDKSYprpwJV/?igshid=17i7m28bqwwjz
