There was already a made for TV movie about Harriet Tubman. It starred Cicely Tyson who provided an amazing performance. Cicely is one of the greatest actors of our time. I remember watching this as a child. It had a profound effect on me. It made me so proud of the strength of my fellow African American sisters who risked their lives to demand that this country honor its own Declaration of Independence. I wonder what the new movie will be like. On the face of it, I feel a little bothered by this Hollywood version. However, seeing is believing. A Woman called Moses can be viewed on YouTube.
Kimberly considers herself a maverick, which means an unorthodox or independent-minded person or an unbranded calf or yearling. She prefers the first definition.
A writer, an architect and historian, an artist, and most recently, a musician, she is fascinated with juxtapositions like positive and negative, beauty and ugly, sublime and repulsive, black and white, reality and fantasy; and with the notion of the “other” and what it means to be human. She is also a bit obsessed with simulation theory. Kimberly currently spends her time between playwriting and bartending at her favorite dive bars.
