Last week, I was invited by one of my sistars to visit the Well’s Built Museum to see a play called “It Bears Repeating“. The museum was built in 1926 and still has it’s original hotel facade from the 1930′s. This historic hotel (now museum) provided lodging to African Americans during our era of segregation. I’ve lived in Orlando most of my life and NEVER saw it, but I must say, I’m glad I visited.
The play provided an accurate depiction of the struggles that African Americans went through in order to gain the right to vote. Beautifully performed by some friends of mine, Erob, Stu, and also included a new friend, Craig Joseph. I wish I remembered the playright’s name because not only did she do an awesome job writing this play, but she also gave one hell of a performance (the woman brought me to tears)
