Artists Repertory Theatre believes that stories help us make sense of the world. However, it is hard to make any sense of the racist, violent, and unjust murders of Black people in this country. Our hearts break and our anger rises due to the inhuman disregard for Black lives and the persistence of systemic racism. We stand in solidarity with those protesting for change. We acknowledge the feeling of fear, grief, and fatigue that ART artists, staff, and community members of color are experiencing. We will work with urgency for a world in which safety and justice are a right for everyone.
