Carmela is a dancer and a Ph.D. student in New York City. She first heard about If These Halls Could Talk through the Office of Multicultural Affairs at Fordham University and initially wanted to participate in order to continue learning and dialoguing about institutional racism. What she found was a deep personal and emotional experience (a series of experiences, really) about love, growth, speaking your truth, the power of silence, and the hope of becoming better able to build community in movement.
