Theatrical Sound Designers and Composers Association

In response to the recent murders of Tony McDade, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and so many others:

The Black community has endured centuries of pain, fear, and suffering at the hands of state-sanctioned violence.

Racism and white supremacy are supported consciously and unconsciously throughout our society.

To those experiencing anguish and fear during this uncertain time – we support you. We will not be silent.

We are dedicating resources to combat racism in our communities and will continue to do so.
