A one-woman show set on Anyblock USA, Hanifah Walidah's Black Folks Guide to Black Folks is a powerful production confronting issues of health, love, homophobia, and more in the black community. Walifah moves fluidly in and out of her characters, crafting vivid imagery and conversation about some of the most difficult topics today. From the woman who runs the neighborhood day care center to a community elder named Top Pop, Walidah remains faithful to familiar characters in the black community, all the while blurring and laughing at the borders dividing race, gender, and more.
