I'll Never Be August Wilson - But

I Always Say That I'm A Writer Who Writes More From Place Than Race.

I've Had Frank Conversations With Theaters Who Say, 'we Love Your Play, But We've Already Done A Play By Another Black Person This Year,' Or 'i Don't Think The Kind Of People You Write About Are The Ones Our Audience Wants To See'... Up And Coming Young Black Female Writers Are Still Struggling To Have Their Voices Heard And Have Their Plays Produced.

Like Most Playwrights, I Hate Talkbacks With A Passion That Can Burn A Hole Through Hell.

Sometimes, Unfortunately, Hatred Is More Powerful Than Progress.

We Expect Our Leaders To Be Godlike. But I Feel That When People Try To Sanctify Leadership, It Puts It Out Of The Realm Of Regular People. And That's Where The Greatest Leaders Come From - From The People.
