I am a philanthropist and creator of International Black Burlesque Performers and Charlotte's Burlesque academy in Detroit.I'm proud to be a Black woman who is comfortable with sensuality and knowledgeable enough to become a Rhode's scholar.
I know there is more to us (Blacks) than bibles,barbershops and BET . I intend to broaden our sense of community, educate others on our culture, and support others who attempt to do the same.
You can be my friend if...
you have specific goals and you stimulate your community in some shape or form.
Hi Charlotte , I wanted to say thank you for the friend invite . I see your'e from Oak Park . I live in manhattan but I grew up for a time in the same area , Pleasant Ridge (10 mile & main ) , Ferndale , Royal Oak and Highland Park . My band will possibly be in Detroit in august for the Cosmicslop fest if we don't play the Afropunk fest here . We're Rain of Kings , if we make to Mi. this summer please come say hello . Cheers , Cliff
It makes me happy to know there's someone out there who is of color and loves Burlesque and has created an organization promoting Burlesque for women of color. Thank you for that!
