Episode description

One of the great playwrights of the 20th century, Alice Childress has been often overlooked in theatre history. Her play "Trouble in Mind" is a frank look at the racism which saturated the theatre of her day... and too often still saturates the theatre of our day. Listen in as Jackson and Jacob discuss this dark comedy!
