Rachelle is a life-long advocate. She’s captured national attention and continues to make waves. In 2021 Rachelle garnered recognition for a 40-day hunger strike demanding Congress pass H.R. 40: Commission to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African Americans Act.
She is now on a 754-mile pilgrimage for racial equity. Along the route from Chicago to Montgomery, Rachelle will perform her one-woman show, LATE: a Love Story, which vulnerably reveals stories from her own life and ten of her friends – many of which are steeped in the devastating legacy of racism in America. Driven by love and reverence for those reshaping her perspective, Rachelle invites communities along her route to join in conversation, reflection and solidarity. For those interested in hosting a performance or walking alongside her – mayors, civic groups, universities, churches and community centers – please contact Rachelle directly at 720-609-9069.
