Today we continue our journey listening to and uplifting Black Creative Voices. This is an ongoing series where we interview black artists about their work, challenges and dreams. This episode features incredible Philadelphia-based actor, makeup artist, producer, businesswoman, and dear friend, Jael Brown. Join us as we talk about:
• generational trauma, PTSD and mental health within POC communities and the film she produced as a love letter to her dad, "Small and Mighty"
• how to navigate including black stories within your work
• playing a conservative black woman in the lead role of a play produced by an all-white team which featured the first predominately black cast at the theater where Grace Kelly got her start
• clout-chasing and false wokeness vs inclusive storytelling
-how to be a good ally through your transparency, understanding, and actions
• her family meeting and spending time with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
• the whitewashing of black excellence
• the positive changes that have already occurred and what to strive for in 2021 and beyond
• & more! Whew!
