The first iteration of Diasporas Now included a mix of live-streamed and pre-recorded performances by artists of Asian, Afro-Carribean, and Latin American diasporas. This event expanded the boundaries of performance as a medium by exhibiting a diverse range of forms such as dance, music, spoken word, and installation.

The entire program was re-streamed a few weeks later, followed by a “Backstage Exchange” with the Diasporas Now hosts and guest artists Whiskey Chow, Josh Woolford, and Catalina Correa discussing diaspora, identity, and performance as self-representation.
