EVOLUTION OF A BLACK GIRL:

FROM THE SLAVE HOUSE TO THE WHITE HOUSE

A CCPL Juneteenth Program.

Juneteenth marks the emancipation of the last enslaved people on June 19, 1865 in Galveston, Texas, ending the institution of chattel slavery in the United States. CCPL is honored to host Morgan McCoy for this live streamed event, as she takes us on an empowering journey through the stories she tells.

"Evolution of a Black Girl: From the Slave House to the White House" is a powerful one woman show where writer/performer Morgan McCoy portrays 12 different characters. Her unforgettable performance of these women takes the audience on a journey from Africa during the 1600's to present day in America. This journey incorporates rich history, stories of love, and moments of joy and sorrow. Stories of women such as Phyllis Wheatley, Harriet Tubman, Maggie Walker, Madam C.J. Walker, Rosa Parks, Shirley Chisholm, Josephine Baker, and Michelle Obama are creatively told throughout this show. "Evolution of a Black Girl..." strategically describes current epidemics that challenge today's society in hopes that the voices of the past can offer solutions to save the future. This thought-provoking show is ideal for Colleges, Churches, Theaters, Libraries, Museums, Middle and High Schools, Community Organizations, and all who are interested in being edutained (educated & entertained). "Evolution of a Black Girl..." tells a universal story that  transcends culture, age, and gender. The twelve monologues in the show are perfectly woven together and designed to educate, entertain, and encourage all who see it to strive for excellence!
