About this listen

Three years ago, I founded a curricular theater program called Exploring Black Narratives, situated in Jewish schools and grounded in the work of acclaimed Black playwrights. One of the most exciting facets of the program has been helping students develop their interview skills in preparation to meet a professional actor who has performed in the play that we've studied. One such actor whom I was lucky to meet is Ron Emile, who starred in a production of Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom by August Wilson and who participated dynamically in EBN guest artist sessions. When Ron expressed an interest in the programmatic side of EBN, I was thrilled, and in the year ahead, we are forging a path as co-directors. In this conversation with Ron, we explore some of the topics we consider when we do the work of Exploring Black Narratives. @hollywoodrondon
