Toni Williams, Host and Co-Executive Producer

Brooklyn Savvy takes on the complex topic of being “Biracial in America” with Juliette Fairley, actress and playwright of the “Mulatto Saga.” Join this riveting, candid discussion of Juliette’s journey as she discovers, and grapples with her mixed race identity. We discuss the changing social construct and President Barack Obama’s impact on the socio-political landscape for biracial people in America. The Savvy panel takes a hard look at what has changed.
 
And, a special note to our viewers, please let us know what you think of the show-this is not ordinary television. Join Host Toni Williams, and panelists, Karen Auster, Lisa Bing and Ellen Salpeter as we deal with an issue that is seldom discussed with this degree of authenticity!
