An Interview with Kamilah Rashied

Newcity Stage: Black Lives Matter, as a foundation and movement, has been around since 2013. But its resurgence demonstrates that it is a campaign that has been active much longer. Marginalized communities and individuals are calling for their stories to be heard but in many ways, theater has failed to give these voices the significance they deserve. Newcity spoke with theater creator and administrator Kamilah Rashied about the ways theater in Chicago fulfills the promises of Black Lives Matter and the ways it could drastically improve.
