Climbing PoeTree's acclaimed performance 'UpRising' is composed dual-voice poems that explore diverse themes, including: healing from state and personal violence, environmental justice, civil rights, spirituality, global politics, and woman's empowerment. Alixa and Naima are touring with excerpts from "Hurricane Season: the hidden messages in water," their widely-celebrated multi-media two-woman show that seeks not to captivate audiences, but to liberate them. Through a tapestry of spoken-word poetry accompanied by stunning video projection, these soul-sisters weave together their voices to draw vital connections between shared struggles and common solutions in a critical moment in human history. Both tragic and triumphant, the poetry Alixa and Naima deliver challenges its listeners to acknowledge their own humanity, dissolves apathy with hope, and helps heal the inner trauma so that we as people may begin to cope with issues facing our communities.
