42 ° ; true phrases of an Antillean lesbian an excerpt written and performed by Indygo Afi Ngozi with the collaboration of an interviewee. In this khoreoword, Indygo focuses on the experiences of humans who identify as queer and Caribbean. She investigates the notion of identity through multiple lens; to be Antillean, gay, queer, non-binary and gender non-conforming especially those who are part of marginalized communities. It is an on-going conversation posing several questions; at what degree do we feel safe to fully accept the multiple versions of what makes us whole; at what age do we live freely; how does one identity become mutually exclusive with the other; how do we feel safe in our bodies; how do we feel safe in the millions of pieces that makes us whole; how do we create balance to be simultaneously in harmony with the self; how does censorship create a space of denial, perpetuating a cycle of denial for the next generation of never being seen; of never fully embracing their own vulnerability; how do we live in-between spaces of authenticity while standing in a harmonious chaos, in the depth of who we are ; how do we create a space for all humans to feel safe and seen
