NAACP ACT-SO has produced top African-American high school talent for more than 40 years. The ACT-SO competitions and ceremonies showcase the results of the students' hard work. Competition winners receive medals and prizes provided by the local and regional sponsors and contributors. 2023 was my first year competing in the competition and I place second place with a Bronze Medal for my performance of Jerome McDonough's monologue Addict. This frightening portrayal of the horrors of drug and alcohol abuse shows children and young adults yielding to the almost irresistible lure of drugs—and suffering the miserable consequences. Addict is an eye-opener for those who have not been exposed to drugs and hopefully an eye-opener for those who have.
