Sins Invalid
Sins Invalid is a performance project that focuses on inclusion of people with disabilities while also celebrating intersecting identities. The project was conceived and is led by disabled people of color, and its mission is to provide a space in which those with physical impairments, people who belong to a sensory minority, people with emotional disabilities, people with cognitive challenges, and those with chronic/severe illness can engage in development of artistic performance. In addition to multidisciplinary performances by people with disabilities, Sins Invalid also provides political education workshops for social justice-oriented community organizations that coalesce around similar themes of disability, race, gender, and sexuality.〔
== Founding and Documentary ==
Sins Invalid was founded in 2005 by Patricia Berne and Leroy F. Moore Jr. The organization, which Berne has described as “a hybrid between a community-based organization and a performance,” originated in the San Francisco Bay Area and tours nationally.〔''Sins Invalid: An Unshamed Claim to Beauty in the Face of Invisibility''. Dir. Patricia Berne. New Day Films, 2013. DVD.〕 Berne and Moore, who are old friends, have both had disabilities since birth, and they started the project upon realizing the paucity of venues dedicated to celebration of their work and their bodies.〔 Both co-Founders have a long history of advocacy and activism in various fields. Berne serves as Director of the organization, and she has been involved in work surrounding asylum claims, youth incarceration alternatives, the LGBTQIA community, and mental health support for survivors of violence, among other fields. Moore is Sins Invalid's Community Relations Director. His work extends to writing, poetry, lecture series, and hip-hop/music. He has worked, studied, and lectured internationally and is considered a "leading voice" regarding police brutality toward and wrongful incarceration of people with disabilities.〔
According to a ''Huffington Post'' interview conducted by Cory Silverburg with Berne and Moore, Sins Invalid’s (pronounced as in “not valid”) name came from the idea that a disabled child is a manifestation of “the sins of the father being cast upon the son". As Berne articulates, there is a pervasive societal norm that validates bodies according to beauty, hygienic, health, and other sets of standards. The Sins Invalid framework asserts that humans have a wide variety of embodiments, and all bodies are valid and worthy of celebration.〔 It is also a play on words, since people with disabilities have historically been referred to as “invalids”.〔
Since its creation, Sins Invalid has held annual major theater performances and an artist-in-residence performance, which have all received critical acclaim.〔 In 2012, the project launched a Kickstarter campaign, culminating in the 2013 release of a 32-minute documentary titled ''(Sins Invalid: An Unshamed Claim to Beauty in the Face of Invisibility )'', directed by Berne, which details its disability justice efforts and the value of artistic expression. The documentary also elucidates the need for inclusion of sex and sexuality in disability rights discourse.
