Story for Rasheeda Speaking

Despite their differences, Ileen and Jaclyn have developed a real bond in the six months they’ve worked together at the front desk of Dr. Williams’ office. When the doctor decides to get rid of Jaclyn, he enlists Ileen to help him find fault with her. Jaclyn, sensing betrayal, turns the tables, unleashing a chilling power struggle in this incisive and crisply funny look at the unspoken tensions buried inside our so-called “post-racial” America.

Rasheeda Speaking is “an acidic depiction of race, power and friendship” (Time Out New York) that keeps you in its claustrophobic grip until its final moment.
