  • Tyler Perry – the Trailblazer Award Waco Theater Center, 2019
    TYLER PERRY – THE TRAILBLAZER AWARD WACO THEATER CENTER, 2019 On Saturday, June 1, 2019, actor, playwright and filmmaker Tyler Perry will receive The Trailblazer Award at WACO Theater Center’s Wearable Art Gala in Los Angeles. Perry’s inspirational journey from the hard streets of New Orleans to the heights of Hollywood's A-list is the stuff of American legend. Born into poverty and raised in a household scarred by abuse, Perry fought from a young age to find the strength, faith and perseverance that would later form the foundations of his much-acclaimed plays, films, books and shows. It was a simple piece of advice from Oprah Winfrey that set Perry's career in motion. Encouraged to keep a diary of his daily thoughts and experiences, he began writing a series of soul-searching letters to himself. The letters, full of pain and in time, forgiveness, became a healing catharsis. His writing inspired a musical, I Know I've Been Changed, and in 1992, Perry gathered his life's savings in hopes of staging it for sold out crowds. He spent all the money but the people never came, and Perry once again came face to face with the poverty that had plagued his youth. He spent months sleeping in seedy motels and his car but his faith - in God and, in turn, himself - only got stronger. He forged a powerful relationship with the church, and kept writing. In 1998 his perseverance paid off and a promoter booked I Know I've Been Changed for a limited run at a local church-turned-theatre.

The post included an 8-page document entitled an “Open Letter on Race." The letter was released as a 25-minute video, also. The central theme of the letter was a reflection on Dr. Martin Luther King’s critical question: “Where do we go from here?" Leading into the week of Juneteenth, the Open Letter on Race received over 30,000 views, shares, and engagements. Friends were inspired to draft essays sharing their stories; and this book represents their collective energy. In the arc of history, we stand hopeful that we have now reached a long-awaited inflection point; this book is a demonstration that the People are ready to lead change.
