The Self-Aware Millennial

Ep. 99 | Never Been to Africa - Our Intentions for IBTS in Accra, Ghana


Listen Later

The WE WILL DREAM festival delegation joins the 2025 International Black Theatre Summit (IBTS) in Accra, Ghana, deepening connections between Black artists and creatives from across the diaspora. In this episode, the WWDF delegation joins the podcast to discuss their upcoming voyage to Africa. They confess their fears, lay out their intentions, and leave room for discovery of revelations that could only be actualized amongst their ancestral atmosphere. The Self-Aware Millennial podcast is hosted by delegate and Multi-Hypenate Performing Artist, Jessica Mixon (J.Mix) and is joined by friends of the show; Lauren Turner Hines (Artistic Director), and Brian Egland (Playwright).
