Opis

"Don't give me that Bible bologna " a flash of anger sparked from each one of Patricia's words. "If He's so mighty and powerful, tell me why He let my daddy leave me? Tell me why He let my uncle molest me and my momma's boyfriends touch on me? Why did He leave me in a hotel room covered in my own blood after my supposed to be best friend, Rodney, raped me? Why did He make me go my whole life being blamed for being raped? Even the Pastor blamed me and called me loose. My own Momma disowned me and called me a liar. She won't even talk to me to this day I spent my whole life trynna live right and it didn't even matter That's why I don't care. Why should I care for Him when He ain't never cared about me So don't sit up here and tell me about your God, Georgia, because your God don't even love me " Walk through the pages of Barren Fruit and the short play, Numbed Spirit, as our main characters come to a place of their life where they have to learn how to be set free in the midst of their very personal, very real, physical bondage. Will they be able to live free, or will the pressure of being imprisoned overtake them?
