If Sampson's strength was in his hair, Mind.Evolution.'s strength is in her voice! Since 2000, Tracy Caldwell has made a name for herself as Mind.Evolution. A lifelong resident of Hartford, CT; Tracy Caldwell is a powerful voice for women, the community and people of color. This woman tells a story that transcends the space between the stage, the microphone and your ears. She challenges the status quo and is at her best when she calls into the question the very things we hold true in this society. She unapologetically brings voice to the voiceless and will make you laugh and cry all at the same time. Displaying depth and complexity, Tracy’s work has graced stages from Connecticut to California, including the Apollo stage in Harlem, NY. A member of the 2014 and 2015 Connecticut Slam team Verbal Slap, she tackles

many social issues in an accessible yet profound manner. Her personal stories inspire the audience to reflect upon the complicated issues that we often encounter throughout life. Her reflections on society and social justice are a call for attentiveness and action. Whether discussing body image, with her stage play The Thick Chronicles: A body Image Story, or the intersectionality of women’s issues and people of color, in her books Bare Naked and Exposure, Tracy lays out the cost of these issues on women and on society at large. Her most recent endeavor has been to create an exclusive space for Black women, and women of color to gather safely, and fellowship about the challenges and rewards of being a woman of color in America with Black Girl Studies.
