In this episode of RATT: Rebel Artists Through Time, we’re joined by Magical Bones — magician, B-boy, storyteller, and a true innovator at the intersection of illusion and identity.

From street dance battles to global stages, Bones has carved out a genre-defying creative voice that’s as political as it is poetic. He doesn’t just perform magic — he reclaims space. And in the process, he introduces audiences to the untold stories of Black historical figures who were buried by time.

Our conversation with Bones unpacks the deeper layers of his work — not just the sleight of hand, but the intent, the research, the ancestry. It’s an episode about presence, power, and pushing the boundaries of what magic can mean.
