Review of SHE: A Multimedia Suite on Sexual Violence, Sandra Bland, and Healing
SHE was a truly stunning and powerful artistic statement made up of so many individual contributions. But what truly stands out is how Parker managed to link together movement, images, stories, and a number of genres of music into such a coherent and dynamic performance. - Cisco Bradley, Jazz Right Now

STATEMENT PIECES: Remarks
"Last night's Statement Pieces was a powerful and moving ending to a long day. Jinah Parker and her dancer's artistic expression was heartfelt, thought provoking and took you on an emotional journey of love, fear, womanhood, the realities of oppression and so much more.. Thank God for the Arts!" - Cheyenne VanCooten
"Amidst the madness of this city and the drudgery of the everyday, I find myself drawn to arts events that transcend and take the audience on a journey. Last night I had just such an experience watching Jinah Parker's Statement Pieces at Dixon Place. That was amazing!" - Cisco Bradley
"Moving, evocative, thoughtful and impressive." - Ethan Paulini
"Jinah Parker's dance program tonight at Dixon Place was really incredible and inspiring. She and the 3 other dancers really lifted my spirits. Always grateful for how art can refuel and redirect us when it is exceptional. Tonight was exceptional." - Kevin Powell
