Award winning solo performer Wayne Harris presents Drapetomania-A Subversive Journey to Activism as a benefit for the Movement Voter Project.
Movement Voter PAC supports grassroots organizations working in key states and districts to win crucial elections through deep voter engagement. These grassroots partners are not only key to winning elections, they are uniquely qualified to get trustworthy information to communities under attack, which is the first line of defense against voter suppression. Check out MVP's "Plan to Flip the House"and "Plan to Flip the Senate".
In 2012, Wayne Harris was invited by the U.S. State Department to travel to Palestine to lead storytelling workshops and perform a piece about Martin Luther King. Feeling at times a tool of the Government as he shares his story of peace with oppressed people, Wayne finds himself on a difficult and unexpected journey. The joke may be on Uncle Sam when Wayne becomes radicalized and his life changes forever.

Drapetomania is a powerful account of Wayne Harris's journey from apathy to activism that resonates deeply with the work of MVP's grassroots partners who are doing all they can to fight against fascism and protect American democracy in this urgent moment.
