Strange Fruit is an artistic intervention created to offer a new point of view, one that insists history must not repeat itself. Inspired by Billie Holiday’s haunting protest performance of “Strange Fruit” against the lynching of Black bodies, this show honors the resilience, strength, and enduring legacy of African Americans. Each performance becomes an act of protest, reframing the song as a modern expression of power, remembrance, and resistance in response to today’s political climate.
