TheatreFIRST, an arts organization dedicated to the exploration of social and economic justice, has teamed up with actor-activist Carl Lumbly to address actor empowerment. It all starts with the audition process, says Jon Tracy, Artistic Facilitator of TheatreFIRST.

It values an artist's time, voice, and craft.
