Event Overview
A Refreshing Approach to Diversity & Inclusion
A Refreshing Approach to Diversity & Inclusion Education
White Privilege, Black Power, an award-winning virtual improv show, represents a departure from the traditional, furrowed-brow approach to Diversity and Inclusion education. Performers Greg Tindale and Eva Lewis are both delightfully and painfully human, profoundly relatable, and entirely disarming. This nimble-witted duo moves their audiences well beyond humdrum virtual conference room presentations by captivating onlookers with their insatiable curiosity, willing vulnerability, a penchant for awkward topics, and frank exchange.
Interjected by moments of inspired improv, the performance weaves itself around a conversation between the two performers, or a special guest interview, to which we return again and again. The format—itself a lesson in authentic communication and impactful co–creation—is a deceptively simple one: Listen. Empathize. Contribute. Repeat.
This audience-tailored, incisive performance is sure to spark change-making discussion. Rife with wit, humor, sincerity, and a huge helping of empathy, it is an experience that simultaneously entertains and teaches.
This program includes”Talk Back” – a 30-minute follow up with White Privilege Black Power performers, hosted by a master facilitator to discuss any topics relevant to improv, diversity and inclusion, workplace culture, etc..
Listen. Empathize. Contribute. Repeat.

Y’all, White Privilege Black Power just killed at the conference I’m keynoting with a show focused on disability, ableism, and more. They should be therapists or diversity trainers in their next lives. Thank you, Eva Lewis and Greg Tindale for sharing your many talents and insight with us!

Amazing! The event was a HUGE success! Everything was perfect – the participants thoroughly enjoyed themselves. I can’t say enough about how well it went.
