These performances were conceived to be alongside the "Reckoning with Racism in the American South" research series at Duke University and have been performed nationally and internationally. A performative lecture by DeFrantz with live sound design and the use of a "Synthball" developed by Quran Karriem, White Privilege is a participatory piece that engages white privilege as a discourse, casting the performative space as an opportunity to enlarge care and do better.
