Mark visits Soulpepper Theatre Company for a fascinating conversation with Artistic Director, Weyni Mengesha. Weyni shares her stories of her Royal Ethiopian history, her early exposure to racism and bullying growing up in Vancouver and Scarborough, and what compelled her early on to give voice to those who were not being heard.
