The Carpetbag Theatre, Inc’s original production is made possible by the New England Foundation for the Arts’ National Theater Project and an outpouring of stories and first-hand accounts from Black residents of Knoxville, TN.
Through a series of stories, monologues, and conversations with some of our most beloved friends, neighbors and family members, this show gives audience members a glimpse into the lives of Black Knoxvillians navigating a global pandemic while simultaneously dealing with issues of racism and classism, calling attention to how the first 16 months were doubly difficult for those of African descent in East Tennessee.
This production will be followed by a discussion that investigates art-making during a global pandemic that addresses the challenges of our time. We will also discuss the intersections of Blackness and disability in an ongoing pandemic and ways that we can create cultures of care.
What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
