Here Lewis takes on the role of high priestess, shaman, mentor, father, mother and witness to the pestilent and strategic construction of white identity in the United States. The White Guilt Confessional absolves white guilt by encouraging the plagued to face, question, learn-from and transform their guilt into change in their respective spheres of influence.

BBB:RETROSPECTIVE will program multiple live performances every evening over the course of 4 nights. The live performances will be a program of performative work that examines the theme Retrospective. The term Retrospective has been considered and used more in contemporary times than it has been in the past one hundred years. Selected performances will be an examination of or related to the past. There will be performances that are an examination of history as far back as one hundred years, to one year, to one month, to one week. Performances that examine a macro retrospective, such as social, political, or economic history will be juxtaposed with performances that examine a micro retrospective such as personal histories related to identity, family, and aging.

Our self-concept is conceived in relation to others. As babies our sense of security is rendered by how well our care-takers attuned to our needs. In this way we come to understand ourselves through the gaze of others. As young people we narrate to others why we are doing what we are doing—and so our self- concept is strongly influenced by the “audience” we initially narrate to. Our auto-biographical self becomes a stabilized force within us when we realize we are the “audience” we are “narrating” to when we engage in private speech. Our public-self is the public presentation of both our present and future selves in relation to the audiences we are narrating to. The current social model which by and large tends to reward a singular manifestation of the self, limits the wide range of multiplicity found within any given individual.
