This is not a political argument. It is a moral and cultural call to action.

This is not a motivational book. It’s an explanation.

These complex people shaped Howard’s sense of justice and solidarity, and taught her about the inextricable bonds working-class people share, despite our differences. But her childhood also left her with emotional wounds that threatened to destroy the life she built for herself.

Mãe, preta, reincidente põe em cena a violência contra a população periférica brasileira a partir de um invejável manejo cênico. É dessa maneira que a obra se constrói através de camadas múltiplas: a violência dos fatos é construída a partir da violência presente nas palavras, nas marcações teatrais e nas rubricas.
