Protagonist Lucina, born to a conservative Protestant midwestern family, armed with a Master's of Fine Arts and a fierce desire to carve out an identity, realizes her education has just begun when her loft in New York City's factory district becomes a hub for articulate politicos. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDespite wrenching inner struggles, she makes a collective decision with her chosen \"family,\" a complex assemblage of gutsy artists who've abandoned home and family conventions, to build their own communal platform and ethics in a wider world: they will confront injustice by welding their creative skills into political street theater, the social media of their day. They bring banners, masks, drums and challenging dramas to parks and community forums, inspiring conversation and action, unaware of brutal attacks lying ahead. As the troupe's women explore their oppressions and authentic identities, the group develops its social consciousness. They prepare to take their expanding repertoire across Amerika. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith today's alarming reactionary developments, I hope my story inspires readers of all ages to transform outrage and despair into collective activism, and forge unique ways to challenge oppression and unjust wars through peaceful, creative cooperation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeri Hilderley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Seawave Recordings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 1.04d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798218195809\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seawave Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":41347071082611,"sku":"9.79822E+12","price":22.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_957c512b-cf45-470e-8518-5a41d622546c.jpg?v=1707844444","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/fire-dragon-street-theater-1962-1967-9798218195809","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
