WE HAVE EXPANDED!
In 2024, beheard.world expanded its work to the iconic Civil Rights town of Selma, Alabama, where we just completed our third annual residency and are working to staff year-round afterschool programs in dance, spoken word and filmmaking. Our Selma collaboration is part of an initiative that includes the Selma Cross-Cultural Nonviolence & Performing Arts Academy, Selma schools and a group of Civil Rights veterans to promote nonviolence and the advancement of peace and healing through the performing arts and filmmaking.
