Drama, History
"Brim" is a trans-generational drama exploring racial trauma, resilience, and legacy, as we follow a family from the 1940s into the 2020s. The narrative navigates the erasure of Blackness and how racial trauma impacts Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline as the majority American identity reckons with race and privilege and their role in oppressive systems.
