Passing Down (part of FailSafe Festival 2018) at Sonnet Theater @ The Producers Club

Synopsis
"Passing Down" is the start/segment of a one woman show, based on the question "How do we nurture blackness?" In this portion we get the perspective of two different women from two different time periods talking to a loved one about what it is to be black, what it is to survive, and what it is to be beautiful. Its a piece about how things have changed from generation to generation, but yet there are still the slightest similarities. Its a piece about celebrating and recognizing black women for who they truly are
