Detroit Mercy Theatre Company Antiracist Theatre Statement

RECOGNITION STATEMENT 

In the Department of Performing Arts at the University of Detroit Mercy and Detroit Mercy Theatre Company (DMTC), we strive to be inclusive, equitable, and open.  

Detroit is one of the largest majority Black cities in the United States, with approximately 77.9% of residents who participated in the most recent Census identifying as Black.1  The Detroit metropolitan area includes communities and peoples of various ethnicities, races, gender identities, sexual orientations, and religions, which in turn is reflected in our student body, alumni, faculty and staff, and audiences. 

Despite this diversity, we acknowledge that the Department of Performing Arts and DMTC has historically prioritized whiteness at the disservice of the students and communities of color it serves. We acknowledge that systemic racism is pervasive, and that academic and theatrical communities require transformative measures in order to sustain student artists. 

We stand with diverse communities in the pursuit of equity and justice.  In order to create a more just and equitable theatre, and to provide the best learning environment for all students, we acknowledge there must be active change. Through concrete policy and structural changes outlined below that promote accountability, transparency, and trust, we pledge to work towards an anti-racist theatre. This policy will be reviewed annually and updated in both our Student Handbook and online. Additionally, our progress will be tracked through our yearly End of the Year report in May. 

1 U.S. Census Bureau. U.S. Department of Commerce.

COMMITMENT STATEMENT 

In addition to ongoing work and discussion, we commit ourselves to the following actions. 

We commit to creating a safe and inviting academic experience for all students.  This includes: 

• Expanding syllabi and learning tools to include important figures, authors, and artists from diverse and under-represented communities; 
• Engaging faculty and staff in yearly antiracist professional development workshops; 
• Revisiting our mentorship guidelines to remove barriers that might impede diverse voices;  
• Re-examining our hiring process and support system for our adjunct professors to create space for diverse applicants and faculty; 
• Supporting the University of Detroit Mercy’s ongoing diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts; 

• Partnering with the University of Detroit Mercy’s office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the effort to make our campus an inclusive and equitable place for all. 

We commit to restructuring our production process to include diverse and under-represented voices.  This includes: 

• Hiring diverse professional guest artists; 
• Providing equitable pay for professional guest artists; 
• Creating systems of support for professional guest artists; 

• Revising our season selection process to include diverse voices; 
• Choosing theatrical works that are relevant to under-represented communities; 
• Employing race transcendent casting practices when race is not a factor in the play as dictated by the script, and color conscious casting practices when race is a factor as dictated by the script.   

We commit to continued evaluation of both this statement and our practices as an academic department and theatrical company as we grow and learn in our pursuit of anti-racism. 

We understand that antiracism is ever evolving and requires continued actionable and transformative change.
