Athlete. Dancer. Leader. Wife. Queer. Radical Activist. Angela Bowen comes of age in the 1950’s. Angela’s marriage to Ken Peters and to dance is radical by any standards – they form a dance company, they empower countless Black children to express themselves and their power through art. But she is not done yet. Another life unfolds as Angela earns a PhD and comes out as a lesbian, ultimately earning a reputation as a radical academic fighting for her rights and the rights of others. But most of all she is fighting to be heard and fighting to be herself. (Karin Wolf)
