On today's Your Call, we’ll speak with Rhodessa Jones, long time performer, social justice activist, and founder of the Medea Project-- about her latest one-woman show, The Resurrection of SHE. SHE chronicles her life using theater to work with female prison inmates and HIV positive women around the world and dives into the realities of being black and female in America today. Join us at 10am Pacific Time or post a comment here. What’s the power of theater for validating the experience of people who feel invisible? It’s Your Call, with Rose Aguilar, and you.
