Idle Crimes & Heavy Work is generously supported through the 2020-23 Partners for Change grant made possible by Alternate ROOTS and The Surdna Foundation.
We are grateful for previous support from Black Spatial Relics, the inaugural Mellon-funded mini research grant from Spelman College's Gender & Sexualities Studies Institute, the Arbes Award, and the Alternate ROOTS Artistic Assistance Grant.

As we, the collaborators of Idle Crimes & Heavy Work, contemplate the ways in which Black women's incarcerated labor is embedded throughout the cityscape of Atlanta and beyond as a legacy of slavery and the forced labor of African descendent people, we acknowledge that we are standing on the stolen lands of the Muscogee/Creek Nation. We honor the histories and lived experiences of indigenous people here, throughout the U.S., and across the globe, and move in solidarity as we work to build a more liberated and just future for all.
