Generation of Dreams

In this blend of comedy and drama, the stage is set by two college students, Amira & C.T. These students come together in hopes of getting others involved to fight these problems of racial and social inequalities. In the process of doing this, they realize they come from a generation of people who are quick to complain but at times, slow to take action.The play highlights historical leaders of the past such as Fred Hampton, Huey P. Newton and Angela Davis. These students look to these leaders of their past for inspiration as a way to restructure their current and future situations.Generation of Dreams brings into question the effects of social media activism, the struggles and set backs of being dream chasers, and navigating through the difficulties of trying to uplift and unite their community.
