Episode Description: “Our guest today, Jamila Glass, has many gifts, but perhaps the most useful is her ability to see the big picture AND the small details. She also values the human experience above all else, and THAT is exactly why she is the best person to talk about bridging the gaps between people… And skill sets… The commercial and company worlds, and of course, cultural and racial divides.”

Feature in L.A. Dance Chronicle

“What is interesting about what he has done with this work,” Jamila said, “is the ebb & flow between different figures who are magnified in one moment and in the next moment disappear back into the collective. This is reminiscent of larger conversations around a person’s need to feel seen and the powers that be, who like puppeteers, choose who is seen and whose voices are amplified.” -Jamila Glass
