Seasons of Stories--Jump Back Honey Jump Back

Don’t miss Jump Back Honey Jump Back: A Journey through African, Southern and African American Storytelling Traditions with Janice Brooks.  Diverse, innovative and inspiring, Janice Brooks is an exceptional Storyteller.
Brooks follows in the tradition of the African “griot” (storyteller) weaving history and culture to entertain and enlighten about the intricacies and wonders of life.   In this interactive performance, the multi-talented Brooks uses movement, sings, and plays percussion instruments.  The blues singer, praise poet, and African griot, all call out to the people in myth and metaphor.  African and African American stories have been told to send messages, voice protest, ease troubled hearts, and instill virtue.
