The TIRED Movement create opportunity for dancers, teachers, choreographers, schools and colleges to talk openly about racial inequality within the industry.
TIRED are on a mission to drive the necessary changes that need to be made. Through our work with dance schools, colleges and organisations, we will improve representation, diversity, inclusivity and equity across all areas of performing arts education.
TIRED - Trying to Improve Racial Equality in Dance - was co-founded in 2020 by Stacey Green and Laura Grant, exactly 100 years after the first Black performer was allowed to perform on Broadway (1920). 100 years later, we're still having the same conversations about the lack of representation and diversity across all areas of dance and performing arts.
To contribute to implementing long-lasting and important change, you can pledge to support the movement at: www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/tiredmovement.

@resdancepodcast Series 6: Episode 11: Racial Equity in Dance with Stacey Green and Imogen Aujla
🎧 podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/resdance
Stacey @tiredstacey2020 and Imogen share insight into their thinking and considerations around racial equity in dance. Through exploring the work of The TIRED Movement @movementtired and their current 3-year research project looking at representation in dance training and education (Red Research Project), we discuss the importance of removing the fear of discussing racism in dance and acknowledging the need for good practices to be adhered to within the dance industry. Through reflecting upon her personal and professional experiences, Stacey advocates for a unitedness and bringing together of the dance community, an openness of communication and a greater celebration of the pioneers and origins of dance influenced by black culture. Stacey and Imogen highlight the value of giving voice to students and practitioners within the field and a quest to work collectively to improve racial equality and representation in the dance industry.
