Community Made, Rooted in Memory

Sascha Drice is a first-generation Haitian-American who grew up in Maine. She is a writer, filmmaker, and musician. Growing up and existing in D.I.Y. spaces, a culture of making it by any means and without any means, is deeply rooted in her creative practice. She has directed several of her own crowd-funded music videos and short films. She believes that to dream of futures worth living in, we must first reconcile with the past. Her Haitian roots have long inspired her work, as she tells stories with strong themes of colonial resistance, liberation, and connection to the divine. As it is diffusely woven through Black art, she sees that sovereignty is the multi- and inter-generational goal of Black folks and those who have experienced the dispossession of their ancestral identity.

She is currently directing her first documentary in New Zealand, following the Indigenous Māori activists who redacted their Treaty with the British Crown.
