Castle of our Skins, Boston's concert and educational series dedicated to celebrating Black artistry, presents a mix of music and spoken word that speaks to the power of one's voice. Solo and chamber works by composers Brian Raphael Nabors, Mason Bynes, Fred Onovwerosuke, and Damien Geter intertwine with the poetry of Castle of our Skins' 2024-2025 Shirley Graham Du Bois Creative-in-Residence, Carmiin Wong. Personal, intimate and simultaneously universal, "I Said What I Said" invites audience members to reflect on their own agency, power, and creative strength.
