Black Hair in the Big Leagues

Hello! Salisha Thomas here! And I'm excited to share that I making my Theater producing debut of a play written by this week's guest on Black Hair in the Big Leagues: Gail Burton! Gail is a thought leader, public intellectual, director, and a writer. She is a trained and experienced practitioner of the techniques developed to affect radical social change and help bring about social jutice, peace, and empowerment of people whos voices have too often been silenced. Her life's work has been focused on social activism and the uses of theater for radical social transformation.

The piece that Gail Burton is currently writing is called Truth: a Biofictional Choreopoem. And we have a crowdfund where we are aiming to raise $55,000. It's only been one week and we've already raised more than half of the money! This is HUGE! Be a part of our story, and donate to our crowdfund (and check out the project!) at http://www.truthplay.org
