Welcome to Chris Fitz Webspace
welcome me
to a haven given
it's well received into my open arms
oh i ran in my sleep through shaking tremors
i felt the splitting earth echoing in my ears
i feel it i'll be the first to praise the sun
the first to praise the moon
the first to hold the lone coyote
the last to set it free
-Amy Ray
A few bits of html including some of Chris' latest projects and personal developments...
HEALING YORK PLAYBACK. My latest theater project is a response to the historic racial violence of 1969 and its more recent painful aftermath. In conjunction with the York mayor's Healing York Initiative, we plan to offer a series public performances and workshops in the late winter and spring of 2008.
THE JUBILEE ARTS NETWORK COMMUNITY .The successor to the Jubilee Troupe, a community website of artists concerned with liberation, the body and improvisation. The site is still in development.
THE JUBILEE TROUPE. A traveling interactive arts ensemble focused on embodying liberation and peacemaking. It is currently disbanded. But see some of what this exciting faith-based arts and social change project has done.
JOURNEY TO IRAQ. I joined a Church of the Brethren delegation to Iraq in 2001 and worked on Iraq policy & education in Washington, DC, 2001-2004. Perhaps some of these thoughts will shed light on the invasion and occupation of that country.
UNMASKING FOREIGN POLICY RHETORIC. M.A. THESIS, The Clinton Shift and "Ethnic Conflict:" Media, Foreign Policy and the Mythmaking of Ethnic Conflict in the War of Bosnia-Herzegovina, 1992-1994.
SOME WRITINGS. A few musings in the written word -- political, social and spiritual.
