I loved that she is so strong, but allows her vulnerability to shine as well. I loved her poetry, and the way she used her words…there was a moment when we (the audience) was so with her, singing with her…it was truly beautiful.
What I didn't like
There were some tiny tech issues, with her sound and lights, but otherwise it was a great show.
My overall impression
Is a strong and powerful commentary on life in America. As we live and strive in this ever changing world of technology, great advancements in science, and the very colorful world of cultural diversity, how are we as a society allowing this thing of disregard, insulting and marginalizing people of African decent in this country. It is profound. Shanara, tells a sceniro of a woman getting upset and calling her a very negative derogatory name, how is this even possible in this day and time that we are now living in, its all so quite disgusting. Her show is insightful, it is educational, and it is inspiring. With so many show in the festival, I am so happy I saw Ask A Black Woman.
