S1.E10 | Goldie Patrick: Centering Black Womxn and Girls through a Hip-Hop Pedagogy
S1.E10.
Thembi talks with brilliant playwright, poet, screenwriter, director, and cultural worker Goldie Patrick about the cities and cultures that shaped her identity and artistry, her innovative theatre projects, and her belief that Black liberation begins with Black womxn and girls.
This dynamic conversation also covers Goldie's hip-hop pedagogy, how she encourages vulnerability in her work, and her thoughts on the broader implications of the Kendrick Lamar/Drake rivalry.
For over 20 years Goldie E. Patrick has been passionately working, living, and building artistic collaborations in theatre. A graduate of Howard University (BFA) and Columbia University (MFA-Playwriting), Goldie is actively working in writer's rooms and developing new works, while serving as the Director of Grants and Programming at the Dramatist Guild Foundation.
Goldie has a unique skill in imagining and interrogating the world of the characters and the play through her "triple threat" skills and experience as a cultural worker, writer, and director. With a zealous approach to developing and collaborating, Goldie has cultivated a vast, culturally inclusive lens and praxis to her work.
Working thoughtfully as a playwright and television writer, and director to model past contributions to the canon of works that illuminate the Black experience while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of form, style, and aesthetic. The unique intersection of her work as a writer, director and cultural worker is indicative of her holistic approach to her writing.
