In today’s male dominated world women have emerged as strong viable contributors to their families, employers, and have placed themselves in positions of self sufficiency. Gone are days where women stay at home take care of the children, the home and have dinner ready when their man comes home from a hard day’s work. In many cases women are the heads of their households and bring in the bacon in the same way men have done for years. In the black community this is no phenomenon. Black women have been doing it for years and continue to do so. As a result black women have developed strong positive attitudes, positions of authority in the workplace and have earned their right to be treated on an equal level in the same way men have. Has the aforementioned changed the way black men think about black women or vise versa? Have black women gotten too strong and perhaps stepped up their game too much?

The powers to be have tried a myriad of programs to help offset these issues concerning our community and nothing seems to be work. The crime rates in our neighborhoods continue to increase, and no one has taken an “outside of the box” approach to help people address these issues in ways that are different from what we’ve done to date. Over the last several years Lynne Walker, an aspiring actress, writer and director, has looked at the social ills plaguing our community and has written a stage play that will address those issues and provide an audience with some visuals that may help people connect and develop solutions to the aforementioned problems. Lynne uses the performing arts as a way to challenge people to think about DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT in their respective communities and not continue to lay back and wait for others to fix things we can fix ourselves. On this date The Hot Flashes, not a menopause thang Show will break from the norm and feature Ms. Lynne Walker as a guest. She will talk about her stage play and the implications of the social significance the play has on the community.
