The Intersection: Woke Black Folk is a never-before-seen look into the complexities of Black political identity. This groundbreaking one-woman show with Funmilola Fagbamila is an internationally touring, multiple award winning, and critically acclaimed stage. It portrays the perspectives of four different Black community leaders who have four immensely different perspectives about how to combat anti-black state violence (police violence) and advocate for a more just society. They have vastly different ideas about identity, gender, religion, economy, mental health, public safety, and the list goes on. And while they vehemently disagree with each other, they will soon find out that they need each other. This is a story about how and why humans, in general, struggle to navigate difference.
The MultiCultural Center is the social justice and anti-racism hub on the UCSB campus, and hosts quarterly music performances that elevate and celebrate the vibrancy of diverse communities. For more, visit http://mcc.sa.ucsb.edu/.
