Black Girl Rising is a powerful one-woman show exploring the hidden health impacts of racism. Blending stand-up comedy, theatrical storytelling, spoken-word poetry and hand-drawn animation, the performance challenges stereotypes with humour, honesty and emotional depth.
Following the performance, there will be an opportunity to ask questions and engage directly with Linnea to learn more about her creative process and the themes behind the work.
This event offers the Murdoch community an opportunity to engage with an important conversation through lived experience through an innovative artistic lens.
