In 2010, Alyana Stanley-Jones was shot and killed during a police raid in Detroit. In this piece, you are with her in a mysterious place with a chorus of black children.She doesn’t know where she is. Combining both elements of a guessing game and a ritual, you are provided objects that were once a part of Aiyana’s life to help guide her to to an understanding of her death. You will walk through her memories, learn her favorite games, and dream aloud with her about if “we was all free.”
