What We’re Up To

 

Black Lives Matter.

Rogue World Music does not condone systemic racism or any of its many manifestations, including the police brutality that has called protesters to the streets around the world. We acknowledge and bear witness to the pain that communities of color have endured for centuries. These tragedies, both recent and historic, are a pattern representative of inherent systemic racism. It is past time to collectively look this issue in the eye and address it at every imaginable level.

Racial equity is a practice that requires a strong commitment because it involves a deep unlearning for all of us. We pledge to do our part to contribute to lasting racial equity. Our board and staff are doing the work: self examination, listening, learning, and amplifying the voices of those who are and have been ignored or silenced. Rogue World Music has re-allocated resources to programs that directly serve and are created by local BIPOC community members, and committed to long-term investment via our Cultural Outreach Program, launched in 2020. Our artist amplification process prioritizes centering culture-bearers, their stories, knowledge, and lived experience.

We urge you to take action too. Examine, learn, listen, amplify. Add your voice to the global chorus calling for change. We will be singing with you.

SPONSOR

Rogue World Music is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that relies on the generous support of community sponsors. At Rogue World Music, we envision the Rogue Valley infused with music and dance of many cultures, animated by curiosity, and inspired to connect through this language of the heart. When we share our collective songs and dances, our sense of belonging and overall wellness increases. Music and dance contribute to our community’s health just as our medical, legal, and social service fields do.
