Homegrown: An Insurrection Play

This was such an interesting play and I loved the lens we got to see it from. It's great to see a Black woman write this story and focus on not only the actions but how those actions affect others, specifically the kids. This is a play that not only shows the mess but provides solutions and offers healing in a time that we truly need it because we are STILL dealing with the actions of January 6th and everything that led up to it.
