What can we learn about the Black experience in America from two great Black American women? The World on Stage Productions, Delvyn C. Case, Jr., Playwright and Director, and David Cousins, Producer, presents the following podcast of two monologues in our series Real Struggles of Real People. SOJOURNER TRUTH 1852: THE TALE OF THE BOLL WEEVIL dramatizes the speech of Sojourner Truth before an Ohio town meeting in 1852 when she was invited to debate the Fugitive Slave Act that was having a chilling effect on former slaves who had sought freedom and refuge in the North. MAHALIA JACKSON: MAKE A JOYFUL NOISE dramatizes a meeting she had with her record producer in 1955 when she was offered a lucrative contract to sing secular music rather than gospel music. Both monologues feature Sheilah Barksdale. After you listen to this podcast, check out
