Performance artist Carrie Mae Weems’ newest production, Past Tense, builds on her previous endeavor, Grace Notes, a project inspired by President Obama singing “Amazing Grace” after the Charleston church shooting where nine African Americans were killed. Past Tense explores issues of race, class and politics, examining the past to better understand the present.
