The Antiracist Theatre with Nicole Brewer and Ann James

In this episode, we talk with Nicole Brewer, theater director, educator, and originator of the internationally recognized Antiracist Theatre (ART) model, about her book The Antiracist Theatre and reimagining how artists collaborate. Brewer’s book combines memoir, self-exploration, and practical tools to examine power, privilege, accountability, and care in theatrical spaces. Rooted in transformative justice, she offers a framework for disrupting harmful practices and building healthier, more humane, and more liberatory creative environments. Joining the conversation is moderator Ann James, an Intimacy and Sensitivity Specialist and the first Black Intimacy Coordinator on Broadway. Together, they explore what it means to build greater awareness, responsibility, and care into the creative process. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
