Abstract
Initiated by the recent equity discourses of inclusion that came out of the COVID-19 pandemic, Canadian performance now sees an increase of Black artistry and performance on the proscenium stages. This article asks if that is the only way they express freedom. Black creative expressions have long communicated freely about freedom in a myriad of ways off proscenium stages. This article looks at the ways the author, Collette Murray, participated in Afro-diasporic dance practices that signify and articulate freedom, performed by people identifying as African, Caribbean, and Black in Canada. Sacred, ceremonial, and social practices convey how freedom is displayed in their settings. The embodied process is not meant to only be legitimized on proscenium stages. Black dance artistry does not seek permission and approval from a dominant dance hierarchy as its expressions freely engage many spaces.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
