Gesa Power House Theatre proudly presents Meanwhile on Wednesday, May 28, 2025, at 7PM.

A docu-poem in six verses, this film is a groundbreaking, immersive, nonlinear, and dynamic collaboration by Jacqueline Woodson (text), Meshell Ndegeocello (soundscape), Erika Dilday (support), M. Trevino (structure), and Catherine Gund (direction). A rare cinematic meditation on how race, racism, and resistance shape our shared breath, not just in moments of violence but in the enduring, pervasive legacy of that risk, it combines artists’ expressions with historical and observational footage to unveil the profound impact of white supremacy on our human connections.

“This is not a love letter to this country. But to us inside this country. We see us. We love us. We make eye contact and nod to us.”
Jacqueline Woodson, narrator
