Minneapolis based playwright and scholar AnaSofia Villanueva joins us to unpack a series of articles from her Power Dynamics Series that she created for the Minnesota Playlist, where she defines, analyzes, and questions differing aspects of how power is divided and reflected within the theater arts industry from a Mixed-Race Latina's perspective. Chandra and Ricky discuss two specific articles with AnaSofia,  "Hamilton: anti-Blackness, Indigenous erasure, and whitewashing Latinx" and "Latinxs Navigating Theaters' Reactions to BLM."
