National Black Television Introduces a Stage Production About The Epidemic of Police Brutality

ATLANTA - Oct. 6, 2014 - PRLog -- National Black Television (www.NBTV1.com), the first onlne television network, will premiere the "The 11th Hour - Enough Is Enough" on January 17, 2015 in Atlanta, Georgia.

National Black Televison is widely known for producing several historically black college and university productions, civil rights documentaries, and mini series over the last ten years. Now, National Black Television will focus on film, theatrical productions, sitcoms and other original programming as a platform for credible content for the African American community.

"National Black Television has been coined 'The Black Netflix' and I consider this an honor, " says Stanley Everage, Jr., National Black Televison CEO and Executive Producer on "The 11th Hour - Enough Is Enough" stage production.  "Being the first black owned online network broadcasting a channel 24 hours a day has been very challenging but rewarding".

“The 11th Hour” explores the various perspectives as it relates to the relationship between the police force and inner city youth.  The story is set against the backdrop of senseless killing of two high school athletes at the hands of the police.  A barber shop behind police lines hosts a group of passionate voices engaged in a heated and spirited discussion about our current state of affairs and how it relates to the literal and figurative death of a village.

Quick-paced, anxious, exhilarating, inspirational, and direct, "The 11th Hour" is at once educational, purposeful, emotional, and searing.  "The 11th Hour" indicts the systematic indifference and criminalization of our inner city youth.  It brings forth compelling commentary supported by historical, economic, and judicial perspectives and offers hope in the midst of a deadly epidemic.

Stanley Everage, Jr. serves as the visionary on the project, fueled by an immense passion to create a movement that will result in purposeful action and dialogue about the mounting deaths of inner city youth at the hands of the police.  National Black Television has partnered with The Positive Arts Movement.

Angela Carswell of the Positive Arts Movement has written "The 11th Hour" script and will also serve as the Director on the stage production.  Angela Carswell of the Positive Arts Movement--an organization that effectively uses the performing arts to bring forth social change--will be making her director's debut for National Black Television by way of "The 11th Hour" stage production.  Angela is best known for her award-winning stage production, Rimshot Urban Musical, designed to bring awareness to human trafficking by using the lures of the entertainment industry as a metaphor.

A ten city tour is in development and the project will be featured exclusively on the network.
