Is My Black Still Beautiful: Reflections on a Childhood in Detroit

Is My Black Still Beautiful explores colorism through the lens of a young black girl during post civil rights in Detroit. This hero's journey is experienced through music, storytelling, projected visuals and dance. It reflects the absurdities and complexities by society's larger ruling class through conditioning of slavery and colonialism.
