Gumbo YaYa: Black Womyn in Process

This video (in two parts) was created by and for a group of black womyn and allies committed to embodied, transformative, artistic production.   This process is taking place in New York City and in Durham North Carolina and in YOU!

Art is for Movement

This video was made by Mama Nia of SpiritHouse to lift up the words of Mama Nayo Barbara Watkins.  If we believe that another world is possible we will remember how to risk it happening.

Nothing is Destroyed

Nayo Barbara Malcolm Watkins transitioned from the physical to the spiritual realm on January 20th 2008. Community artist, poet, educator, founder of the Mekye Center and leader of Alternate Roots, Mama Nayo’s love print is all over Durham North Carolina, the South and the world.

This video was created by Nia Wilson, poet, educator, cultural worker and director of SpiritHouse.

This rendition of “I’ll Fly Away” was voiced by Rachael Derello to honor and celebrate Mama Nayo’s journey home.

We miss her much.
