"The Trial of One Short-Sighted Black Woman vs. Mammy Louise and Safreeta Mae"
The is a satire that put African American female stereotypes on trial and reminds us of our not so distant past. A woman decides to take two longstanding unfavorable stereotypes of black women - the jovial, asexual and servile Mammy and the hyper-sexualized Jezebel-like Safreeta Mae - to court for promoting what she feels are negative images that have impeded her ascension up the entertainment industry's corporate ladder. Using a mock trial, the author, Karani Marcia Leslie, takes the audience through a thought-provoking journey using humor, pathos and compelling testimony as the legacy of slavery is examined, exposed, and celebrated.
