Amplifying black voices on stage | Jamila Demby
Live at San Diego Theatre's The Old Globe, join Director of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Access (EDIA) at The Old Globe Theatre Jamila Demby as she takes us through her journey in regional theatre to discusses how Black stories on stage contribute to a deeper, more inclusive human experience. Through personal anecdotes, humor, and calls for change, Jamila sheds light on the persistent underrepresentation in theatre and offers insights on how Black communities can reclaim and redefine their space within the arts as she answers the question, what steps can we take to rewrite the narrative to understand ourselves better and shape our identity in the arts industry in the 21st century?
