On the day of a much-anticipated speech by Rosa Parks during the height of the Civil Rights Movement, four activists working in a Virginia civil rights office ponder whether the proclamation of equality amongst mankind includes women. With remarkable insight and unexpected humor, Cadillac Crew, written by Tori Sampson, reclaims the stories of the forgotten leaders who blazed the trail for desegregation and women’s rights, asking: when will the world be ready to embrace women in all their capacity? From the Civil Rights Movement to the present day, Cadillac Crew illuminates these forgotten leaders and explores what happens when Black women refuse to be written out of history.

Foolish nostalgia leads to decay.

A story deconstructing the concept of "Home." What does home mean? Is it the place you go when you feel scared? When the world is coming down on you? Is it the place where your friends and family are?
