CHADWICK BOSEMAN: History x Purpose = Destiny (Ep. 7)

Historical Drama with The Boston Sisters looks at the artistic journey of Chadwick Boseman, best known for the iconic role T’Challah/Black Panther in the Marvel Universe films. A purpose-driven artist, Chadwick Boseman's creative choices (and willingness to struggle) led to his destiny of creating celebrated portrayals of historical and fictional people. We talk about "Chad" – as he was known to those closest to him – through the eyes of Howard University Professor emerita Vera J. Katz and Howard classmate and colleague director/playwright Psalmayene 24. The Boston Sisters talk about connections with Chadwick Boseman as student, professional actor/director/writer, and wrap up the podcast with a conversation about his award-winning performance as Levee Green in the film adaptation of the August Wilson play Ma Rainey's Black Bottom that brings Chadwick Boseman’s artistic journey full circle. *Note: Year the "Iola's Letter" scene between Ida B. Wells and Thomas Moss in Memphis takes place is 1892, not 1893 as mentioned in the podcast.
