Programs
DTMR provides programs in the Fort Worth community including the Black, Brown, Indigenous, and Asian Music Symposium, The Fort Worth African American Roots Music Festival, and the Community Visiting Artist Educator Program.
Decolonizing the Music Room is located in Fort Worth, Texas which is the ancestral land of the Kitikiti'sh - the Wichita and Affiliated Tribes
We acknowledge the original caretakers of this land, as well as their descendants and all Indigenous peoples who continue to make contributions to the land- past, present, and future. We honor the long history of Indigenous culture that has persisted for thousands of years, and recognize Indigenous ways of knowing that have been carried into the present.
We also acknowledge the forced, unpaid labor of enslaved Africans integral to the material, financial, and cultural construction of what today is known as the United States of America.
