“We Got The Power” is a prototype public artistic action taking place as part of “The People vs. Project 2025” initiative. The People vs. Project 2025 is an artistic, populist and public expression of the work being done by many activist community and political advocacy organizations working to oppose the administration of President Donald Trump and what is a dangerous Christian Fundamentalist dogma fronted by the Heritage Foundation.
Featuring Arts Performance Actions by: Amos White, Basma Edrees, Bellamy Ackrell, Christine Kammler, Dance Brigade, Extinction Rebellion, Genny Lim, Kimi Sugioka, Our Teatro/Cosmovisión, Peggy Morrison, STEAMROLLER Dance Company and the Wandering Ensemble, “We Got The Power” is a free participatory event – though people can show up to be spectators as well if they wish to. The event is divided into segments. Most attendees will be participating in a flash dance activity titled after the name of the event, “We Got The Power” starting at 12:00pm. Individuals interested in taking part in the flash dance, please RSVP and a rehearsal schedule will be sent to you. Or it is possible to learn the flash dance choreography on-site at Civic Center Plaza starting at 10:00am on the day of the event. There will also be a participatory procession and a poetry and spoken word stage starting at 11:00am. Groups wanting to participate as independent entities in either the flash dance and/or the procession should also indicate this when RSVP’ing.
