In this episode, I speak with Aieshia Dickey aka Blue Flame on her career as an African-American Fire Performer.
We cover everything from what kind of training she went through, what it’s like being an African-American woman in the Circus Arts/Aerial Arts community and more. When we recorded this episode the main news going on in the world was Covid-19. I asked Aieshia to record a few thoughts after the killing of George Floyd this past week. You will hear her thoughts before the episode. Please help amplify Black voices.
Thank you Aieshia Dickey for being transparent and open about the problems with race in our country! You can also watch the interview here: https://youtu.be/lhERZMBp9zI
