Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.

For day one of Ultra-red’s project, the investigation will take up protocols for listening to the sound of freedom composed and facilitated by George E. Lewis.

Come for the crip ingenuity; stay for the smooth feels of what it is to be each other’s everything.
