Broadway veteran, and first time mama, Afra Hines joins us to share her journey through pregnancy, childbirth, and having a newborn during Covid-19. We also delve into her career as a bi-racial woman on Broadway; covering everything from navigating the physical demands of the Tony Awarding Winning musical Hadestown while pregnant, to experiencing colorism in our industry. We discuss how it affects the next generation of performers, and how someday having the underrepresented in positions of power needs to become unremarkable as we move forward towards change.
