@blackwoodjankins It was groundbreaking in 1976 when black women were breaking OUT of the role of smiling through it all like everything was alright in all circumstances.

OMG!! I've always remembered seeing a commercial of this play from when I was a child and all I could ever recall was the line... "i've been watering this plant since the day I have met you, water it wit cha damn self." Now I know where that came from. I was afraid of that commercial seeing it on TV. because it was a group of women in a circle and speaking their parts, but I thought it was some scary ritual they were doing, I guess I had no idea what a play was back then.
