Black lives matter. 

As an organization, ROK is striving to know better and do better. 

As artists, we hear, see, and lift up our siblings of color. 

And as human beings, we sing out that we must reimagine not only what our art form can be, but much more; what our society must be, locally, nationally, and globally.
