“Hallelujah at Howard University” was such a full-circle moment for me. I got to bring my classical-meets-modern style together with the incredible legacy of Howard’s Showtime Marching Band and Concert Chorale. What made it even more powerful was connecting with students who reminded me so much of myself, who don’t fit into a box. Engineers, filmmakers, classical musicians—all celebrating being Black in their own way. This version of Handel’s Hallelujah isn’t just a remix—it’s a statement. This is what happens when classical meets culture. We’re not just performing—we’re shifting the narrative with energy, with joy, and without apology.

A Poetic rallying cry, highlighting the horrific miscarriages of justice that Asian-Americans and Asians in America are, and have historically been subjected to: day to day micro-aggressions to actual acts of violence and terror against members of our community. From the perspective of Emmy-Award winning poet and performer Suzen Baraka, this lyrical short shares her story of growing up Black and Korean in America and struggling with shame, helplessness, and rage before finding pride, power and courage.
