Zakiyyah Sutton |
Zakiyyah Sutton is an artist-activist who utilizes music and visual media to explore themes that centralize marginalized communities. As an actress and classically-trained singer who is well-versed in Opera, Hip-Hop, Jazz, and R&B, she utilizes her extremely versatile sound to reach a broad range of audiences and listeners. She’s had the pleasure of bringing these sounds to numerous audiences from the House of Blues to more recently, the United Nations. After graduating from Wellesley College with a degree in Political Science and Sociology, she furthered her vocal studies at New England Conservatory and later via private training with a Berklee College of Music instructor. She also currently works as a racial equity consultant with Arts Connect International, helping arts organizations reassess their practices and address issues of inequity that affect people of color. If she’s not busy creating social change or singing her current favorite tune, she’s probably busy writing the next one.
