Multimedia performance invites exploration of Black/Queer identities

Cornell Council for the Arts’ (CCA) 2018 Biennial kicks off Sept. 14–15 at the Schwartz Center for the Performing Arts with “A Meditation on Tongues,” conceived and directed by Ni’Ja Whitson, and performed by The NWA Project. The piece is a live-dance and multimedia adaptation of Marlon T. Riggs’ iconic film “Tongues Untied” (1989).
