Many Black actors have taken on the dual role of activists fighting for social change. In the past, they participated in the Civil Rights Movement and the Black Power Movement. Today, Black actors are still fighting for racial equality but are also focusing on women's rights, LGBTQ+ rights, voting rights, economic justice, environmental justice, and many other important causes. Yet they are often told to "shut up and act." However, these actors will not be silenced. Join us for this important show that honors Black actor-activists who risked it all to fight for social change.
