AMERICAN THEATRE: The grantmaking and learning initiative Critical Minded has released a new 159-page report titled Topdogs and Underdogs: Critics of Color and the Theatrical Landscape, an incisive, groundbreaking study of the structural challenges facing American critics of color in the United States, with a specific focus on contemporary theatre critics, which concludes with an urgent call for change. At a time when legislative and institutional support for both diversity initiatives and free speech is being aggressively rolled back, Topdogs and Underdogs makes an impassioned argument for the fundamental value of criticism in a democratic society.
