Jimmy Raye Jons: What America Did
About the play
This is the story of how the American psyche shaped the thinking and actions of one individual. In the day and age of being “woke,” and the need to fight for self-preservation, an ugly spirit has risen. This hard-hitting social drama mirrors the decay and utter destruction of values and ethics among many Americans.
