Reckless Black Dropouts

Play, 1m 4f Four Black college dropouts - Naima, Raymond, Camille, and Jordan - attempt to return to their alma mater through the school's groundbreaking "Bring Black Kids Back" Initiative. Spearheaded by the university's DEI department co-head Nakhia, who's as overworked as she's underpaid, the BBKB, and the dropouts, are her sole responsibility. However, in order to return to the university, each student must first explain the reasoning behind their choice to drop out - confronting their own traumas of collegiate racism along the way. As the dropouts bond, vent, and work through deeply laden emotions, they must ultimately make the choice of whether or not to go through with re-enrollment; or back out of the program, living up to the stereotype of the "Reckless Black Dropout."
