Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe (WBTT) is delighted to host acclaimed author, podcaster, and motivational speaker Mildred J Mills for “Literary Delight with Mildred J Mills,” a free, inspirational book reading and conversation taking place Thursday, December 12, from 12:30-2:30 p.m. at the WBTT theatre (1012 N. Orange Ave., Sarasota). In “Daddy’s House,” Mills chronicles her extraordinary journey, from growing up in the cotton fields of Alabama to becoming a trailblazing executive and global speaker. Her memoir is a testament to resilience, faith, and determination, featuring poignant reflections on breaking societal barriers, overcoming personal trauma, and pursuing and achieving success – shattering glass ceilings as a Black woman executive – against all odds. Hosted by Cynthia Davis, Abbie Brothers, and Irene Johnson, the event aligns with WBTT’s mission to celebrate the African American experience through storytelling and performance. There will be light bites and cash bar from 12:30-1 p.m., the program and then an open conversation with the author. After the program, there will be books available for purchase and a book signing by the author. While the event is free, advance registration is required; email Regina Belvin at [email protected].
