Repost from @wacotheater • This Sunday! Join us in person for a #BlackTerrorFilm preview and panel conversation. RSVP Required to attend. Watch the trailer and behind the scenes documentary of the film adaptation “Black Terror” written by Richard Wesley. The panel will feature WACO co-Artistic Directors Richard Lawson, Tina Knowles Lawson and guests. In “Black Terror”, a group of Black freedom fighters defend their community by any means necessary --- negotiating two approaches to liberation: kill the oppressor or use their social, political, and spiritual power to win. Panelists: Richard Lawson Tina Knowles Lawson Ayuko Babu Erin Washington Moderator: Zachary Price Originally produced fifty years ago, playwright and screenwriter Richard Wesley’s Black Terror returns under the bold direction of Richard Lawson. This film collaboration illuminates the urgent demands and extreme sacrifices at the center of Black liberation struggles. In Black Terror, an impassioned squad of revolutionaries called the Black Comrades sets out to unshackle their people from oppression. The freedom fighters’ divergent approaches not only threaten their alliance but expose their vulnerabilities. Lawson and Wesley’s production, which extends beyond any one time or place, challenges audiences to consider: What path toward freedom would you take?
