Meshell Ndegeocello Chapter & Verse: The Gospel of James Baldwin
Tuesday, September 15, 2020 – Wednesday, June 30, 2021
UPSTREAMING
Inspired by the writing of James Baldwin Created by Meshell Ndegeocello In collaboration with Charlotte Brathwaite Featuring the contributions of Staceyann Chin, Suné Woods, Nicholas Galanin, Paul Thompson '93, Justin Hicks, and more.
A Co-Production of Bismillah, LLC and Fisher Center at Bard Co-Commissioned by Live Arts Bard, UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance, Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, Kenny Leon's True Colors Theatre, and Festival de Marseille.
“No label, no slogan, no party, no skin color, and no religion is more important than the human being.”—James Baldwin
A project inspired by James Baldwin’s truth-telling treatise on justice in the United States, The Fire Next Time, and our endlessly changing world. Chapter & Verse: The Gospel of James Baldwin is a 21st-century ritual tool kit for justice. A call for revolution. A gift during turbulent times.
“Love takes off the masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within. I use the word "love" here not merely in the personal sense but as a state of being, or a state of grace—not in the infantile American sense of being made happy—but in the tough and universal sense of quest and daring and growth.” —James Baldwin
Each month, September–December 2020, we offered gifts—music, thoughts, meditations, and visual testimonies of resilience—inspired by James Baldwin’s The Fire Next Time.
“This is my offering to you. This is a different experience so I hope you have an open mind or at least an open heart. I see James Baldwin as an Orisha, his writing as the living word. I wanted to pay homage to him and to the time and effort it took to sit, to physically and emotionally fill the page with a truth that made my own sorrow feel less lonely. He put me on a path of empathy and humility towards my parents. It humbled me towards my mother born in 1944 and my father born in 1939—a time I can’t imagine living in while black.” —Meshell

“We projected ourselves into a future in which we are loved absolutely and we rehearsed our lives there.”
The Future Is Present is a process and a practice, it’s a model for building community in a very small and incredibly powerful way. Led by artists Charlotte Brathwaite, Justin Hicks, Janani Balasubramanian, Sunder Ganglani, June Cross, and Alyssa Simmons, the project built a small community of Black and Indigenous young people and small community of young artists from Bard College* to spend seven weeks cultivating intimacy and discourse.
The youth cohort created demands on our collective future. The Bard community members listened, deeply.
Now, a process of amplifying those demands is underway. The artists at Bard have made a film for the youth cohort and will be releasing it next month on this page. Stay tuned.
This is an invitation to you to participate, somehow, on terms that make sense in your community. We would love to talk about what that might mean for you. Reach out to coordinator@thefutureispresent.xyz.

Meshell Ndegeocello Chapter & Verse: The Gospel of James Baldwin
Tuesday, September 15, 2020 – Wednesday, June 30, 2021
UPSTREAMING
Inspired by the writing of James Baldwin Created by Meshell Ndegeocello In collaboration with Charlotte Brathwaite Featuring the contributions of Staceyann Chin, Suné Woods, Nicholas Galanin, Paul Thompson '93, Justin Hicks, and more.
A Co-Production of Bismillah, LLC and Fisher Center at Bard Co-Commissioned by Live Arts Bard, UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance, Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, Kenny Leon's True Colors Theatre, and Festival de Marseille.
“No label, no slogan, no party, no skin color, and no religion is more important than the human being.”—James Baldwin
A project inspired by James Baldwin’s truth-telling treatise on justice in the United States, The Fire Next Time, and our endlessly changing world. Chapter & Verse: The Gospel of James Baldwin is a 21st-century ritual tool kit for justice. A call for revolution. A gift during turbulent times.
“Love takes off the masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within. I use the word "love" here not merely in the personal sense but as a state of being, or a state of grace—not in the infantile American sense of being made happy—but in the tough and universal sense of quest and daring and growth.” —James Baldwin
Each month, September–December 2020, we offered gifts—music, thoughts, meditations, and visual testimonies of resilience—inspired by James Baldwin’s The Fire Next Time.
“This is my offering to you. This is a different experience so I hope you have an open mind or at least an open heart. I see James Baldwin as an Orisha, his writing as the living word. I wanted to pay homage to him and to the time and effort it took to sit, to physically and emotionally fill the page with a truth that made my own sorrow feel less lonely. He put me on a path of empathy and humility towards my parents. It humbled me towards my mother born in 1944 and my father born in 1939—a time I can’t imagine living in while black.” —Meshell

“We projected ourselves into a future in which we are loved absolutely and we rehearsed our lives there.”
The Future Is Present is a process and a practice, it’s a model for building community in a very small and incredibly powerful way. Led by artists Charlotte Brathwaite, Justin Hicks, Janani Balasubramanian, Sunder Ganglani, June Cross, and Alyssa Simmons, the project built a small community of Black and Indigenous young people and small community of young artists from Bard College* to spend seven weeks cultivating intimacy and discourse.
The youth cohort created demands on our collective future. The Bard community members listened, deeply.
Now, a process of amplifying those demands is underway. The artists at Bard have made a film for the youth cohort and will be releasing it next month on this page. Stay tuned.
This is an invitation to you to participate, somehow, on terms that make sense in your community. We would love to talk about what that might mean for you. Reach out to coordinator@thefutureispresent.xyz.
