This rallying cry became the most iconic phrase of the Civil Rights Movement, challenging the persistent command that Black people wait?in the holds of slave ships and on auction blocks, in segregated bus stops and schoolyards?for their long-deferred liberation. In Black Patience, Julius B. Fleming Jr. argues that, during the Civil Rights Movement, Black artists and activists used theater to energize this radical refusal to wait. Participating in a vibrant culture of embodied political performance that ranged from marches and sit-ins to jail-ins and speeches, these artists turned to theater to unsettle a violent racial project that Fleming refers to as "Black patience."
