I continue with examining the "unkindest cut"... The hatred that comes from within one's own ethnic group.  It indeed is prevalent in many ethnic groups.  Many are in denial that this issue still exists in certain ethnic groups.  All the more reason that we're gonna revisit this topic again and again.  I will also discuss if findings via DNA,  declaring that only 1 in 20 Americans of African descent have Native ancestry which is contrary to the claims of many more,  have anything to do with a desire to disassociate or water down African ancestry.  See the clip by Henry Louis Gates...

This and other topics are included in my socially conscious plays "A Wound In Time" and "Blood Makes The Red River Flow".  I produced  and directed "A Wound In Time" last Fall at the legendary Nuyorican Poets Cafe and due to the many social issues it addressed I realized that I must reach for a larger audience; in the homes of folks worldwide on DVD.  If these issues are of concern to you please join me in my effort to make this possible with a contribution to my fundraising campaign on kickstarter.com to help cover  costs.  The deadline for me to reach my goal of $8000 is July 5th.
