Thank you for creating such a creative, fun and inspiring environment for actors to thrive.

Researching a writing project I’m doing, I come across this quotation from a personal journal: “to take the first line across the paper – I always want to do it somehow newly. Surprisingly. It’s exciting”. Makes me feel inspired and reminiscent of all (my) work at @BGBStudio

Saturday is the Fourth of July. What does that mean this year for us as Americans? As Artists? It's time to take stock in light of everything happening in our country and to make conscious choices about how we want to move forward as a Community and a Country.

What IS The United States of America?
What do we WANT it to be?
What do we NEED it to be?

Artists have always had a hand in defining what our country is to each other and to the world. We do this as an Industry, as our own community within the Industry, and as YOU, the Artist, individually.

How can the work that you're doing build with others in our community towards something better and bolder, more compassionate and honest? Share your thoughts with us below.

"I found that every time I asked permission the answer tended to be no, so I had to make my own yeses." Issa Rae

The only person who needs to give you permission is you.
No means you have to make your own yes.

Don't wait for permission.

You’re talented. You’re ambitious. You’re smart. You’re able. So what are you going to do with that? Waiting for someone to give you permission to do what you love and what you were born to do is the death of your artistry. Take every opportunity to show up and do your work. Work harder than anyone else. Find true mentors and collaborators. Tell yourself how worthy you are every day. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. And step into the light.

Drop what you're no longer asking permission for in the comments. ⚡

A Note from Steve:
It feels like a new phase.

Nina Simone is the definition of a Revolutionary Artist. Explore her work, feel her passion and let her power inspire you.

This clip is shown in the documentary "What Happened, Miss Simone?" (Netflix, Dir: Liz Garbus @lizfgarbus 2015) on Netflix, which we highly recommend you check out.

Comment below with your favorite quotes that inspire you to be a more Revolutionary Artist.

Last year, we facilitated a creative photo shoot where women in our BGB community could showcase their unique identity — on their terms. This week, some of them put together this special project using some of those photos to celebrate themselves and their essence.

In their words:
"Many times as Black women we are told we are are not valuable. We are told we’re “too” much and equivocally told we’re not enough. But we are enough, we’re actually more than enough. We are EXCEPTIONAL. Black queens originating from Africa, enslaved in America. Our stories and voices matter. See our beauty, hear our roars!"

It's incredible how much our global community has

It's incredible how much our global community has grown in these past few months. And we want you to know: whether you're in Sydney, Paris, Amsterdam, Tokyo, Zambia, Toronto, or anywhere in the world… when we're able to go back to the Studio in LA, we will be continuing classes for everyone online.
The work we are seeing in the virtual space, on Zoom, has shown us such deep connections among actors all over the world, forging intimate work from one end of the country to the other, and across continents.

It’s been powerful. It’s been healing. It’s expanded our BGB community globally online in ways we could not have imagined and we're committed to keeping alive. This is your creative home. This is your Industry touchstone. We’re here to stay.

Today, we celebrate Juneteenth, the day the order

Today, we celebrate Juneteenth, the day the order was finally given in Texas to free the rest of the enslaved people there after the end of the Civil War.

Today is a day for reflection - on our country's systemic racism, both past and present, and on ourselves.

Today is a day for action - many protests are organized around the country, and there are ways to contribute from home, as well. You can find a few at the link in our bio.

It's a day to look at our own Industry and say "How can we rebuild this in a way that is more INCLUSIVE and truly EMPATHETIC to ALL EXPERIENCES?" because that is the standard we must hold ourselves to. It's a day to re-up on our own commitments to fight for what's right in our art, in our spaces, in our world.

If you can this morning, join Dre Jackson @dresfine on this channel (@bgbstudio) in talking about "What's Next?" - about Juneteenth, protesting from home, and more on Instagram Live at 11am.
