  1. I Am Black History by Rhonda Hansome

    Friday, February 24, 2017


    I am Black History and Women's History, thanks to Director Debra Robinson's film 
    I Be Done Been Was Is 

    Last night, I was at the Brooklyn Academy of Music for the Black History Month Film Festival, 
    One Way Or Another: Black Women's Cinema, 1970-1991

    Complete Disclosure: I'm also the poster gal of the festival!

    Last night at the (newly scheduled due to high interest & snowstorm) third and final screening of Debra Robinson's comedy documentary, in which I'm featured with the iconic
                                                                      Marcia Warfield 
    I felt like part of history!
    Did I mention I'm also NARRATOR of  I Be Done Been Was Is? 
    (Blushes & tucks toe in dirt)
    I'm grateful to Nellie Killian and Michelle Materre for inviting me to be part of the Q & A following the screening. I appreciate everyone, friends, co-workers and new fans, who attended. 

                  Thanks Gordon Balkcom for this photo of me with my long time pal Eric Vetter at BAM.

    My understanding is that the ONLY 2 EXISTING COPIES of the film are in the Lincoln Center Performing Arts Library. I hope intentions for the preservation of this, Women's History, Black History and Entertainment History, doumentary come to fruition.

    Because I'm trying to get through the day without mentioning Detritus Prumt*, here's more about me.

           7 PM Tonight Friday 2/24 New Women Space 188 Woodpoint Rd. Brooklyn NY 11211 

                                                   LAWL - Ladies And Women Laughing
    Arti Gollapudi, Producer

                      7 PM Sunday 3/5 Brooklyn Commons 388 Atlantic Ave. Brooklyn NY 11217
                                                                  Between Hoyt & Bond

                                       No cover for Randy Credico's Comedy Music & Rhetoric Show


    Oh shucks I was trying to avoid mentioning Detritus Prumt! 
    Thanks to Randy Credico's show that effort is gone with the wind.

  2. Heroin Not Funny Ha-Ha By Rhonda Hansome

    Thursday, March 10, 2016


    I'm conflicted.

    Drug dependency is no joke.

    Drug addiction is not funny.

    In addition to the incredible financial profit associated with drug traffic, narcotics are also used for social control. Time and again it is revealed that illegal substances are funneled directly to black populations in the United States. It has been documented that African-American neighborhoods were the targeted destination of highly addictive DRUGS, often in response to increased community consciousness, militancy or rebellion. I'm just saying...

    What IS funny to me (not funny Ha-Ha, but in a WTF? kind of way) is the recent almost weekly hue and cry over the uptick in drug overdoses in suburban areas, so called "good neighborhoods" or among the "well educated". Countless families have one if not two generations suffering repercussions of draconian drug possession / use laws.  Why now the call for a "more sensible" response to addiction and decriminalization?  I'm not saying, I'm just saying...

    When it comes to drugs there is more than susceptibility at play. There is design and discrimination regarding penalties. There is intention with distribution and proliferation.

    There is a method to the madness. 
    It's no laughing matter.
