EAC Black Impact Network ERG Explores African American Heritage Through Theater and Team Connection

Company: EAC Network

Four actors in period clothing stand on a theatrical stage set designed to look like a historic home interior.

Programming example

Members of our EAC Black Impact Network Employee Resource Group (ERG) recently attended Joe Turner’s Come and Gone. The play follows Herald Loomis, a man who was illegally enslaved for seven years by Joe Turner, as he searches for his wife and his identity. It powerfully explores themes of African American resilience, heritage, spirituality, and the journey to find one’s “song.”The performance was both powerful and thought-provoking. Afterwards, we continued the experience with dinner at BBQ’s, making it a meaningful and memorable day for our team.hashtag#ERG hashtag#EmployeeResourceGroup hashtag#theaterarts hashtag#EAC hashtag#Strongertogether
