Solo Sundays 5/22/16 - Lisa Marie Rollins, Joey Garcia, Kenny Yun & Liatile Dee Mohale
.
LIATILE DEE MOHALE -------------------------------------- "I Eat What I Like"
When a grown woman cannot decide whether she wants a slice of pizza or not, that says a lot about her world, within and without. But, in an era where information is everywhere, surely making big decisions like deciding whether one is hungry or not should be a piece of cake! Who would have guessed that the struggle to choose an item on the pizzeria menu can reveal so much about the daily struggle to find and act on ones voice.
KENNY YUN -------------------------------------- "Mom Spilled Guts On My Tater Tots"
Please don't start mom! It's bad enough sitting in a smorgasbord, eating taters. Hope people aren't staring. How can I get her to stop ? Oh no, I can't believe mom's going there!
JOEY GARCIA --------------------------------------------- "¡Ay Caramba! Telenovelas Killed My Caribbean Mother!"
Seventeen-year-old Joey is waiting at the Oakland airport, coming home after a life-changing European vacation. Her mom, a native of Belize, is picking her up. But when Joey's mom greets her with rapid-fire Spanglish, Joey's perplexed. The mother she knows was born and raised in the Caribbean. This woman is clearly Mexican, or pretending to be. Locked in a conversation that circles like a Mexican Hat Dance, Joey is about to discover how Telenovelas changed her mother's life.
LISA MARIE ROLLINS --------------------------------------- But Yo' Mama's White
Yeah, she said it. Lisa Marie is tired of the west coast "colorblind love agenda". She's tired of people telling her to jump on the 'date white men' train and supremely annoyed by liberal white families adopting rainbow kids. But wait a second, her Mom is white, and she grew up with white people. Is she racist? Is she a hater of true love? Dammit if these lines around race, relationships and love ain't blurry.
