COLOUR OF BEAUTIFUL

DR. KAREN MOORE

Born and raised in Philadelphia, PA Dr. Karen Moore developed a love for the arts at an early age. As a classically trained pianist, she used her gift to play for choirs and churches in the Philadelphia area. During her early adult years, Karen developed a love for poetry and musical theater. This ultimately led to combining her music, poetry, and songwriting into theatrical productions performing on stages in Philadelphia, New Jersey, Delaware, and Atlanta.

Karen is the founder of Urban Poetik Ministries, Inc (UPM) a nonprofit organization whose mission is to bring urban poetic works that include the mediums of music and dance to the theatrical stage in service to our performers and our audiences. She has written and produced for the theater such works as Song of Solomon: Poetry in Motion a tribute to black love and Packing Up The Marion Williams story in honor of the legendary gospel singer. She has written 85% of the prose/monologue for her productions, and along with her husband, Robin Williams Sr., has composed all of the original music.

Karen’s signature production Poetik Blues: A Sistah’s Story, premiered in 2012 and is a journey through the blues African American women face throughout their lives. She began to notice how her personal story of “Brown Skin Blues” was resonating with her audience. The hurt and trauma of colorism were still running rampant. Karen was compelled to act on this discovery.

In May of 2019 under the leadership of Ambassador Dr. Clyde Rivers the I AM THE COLOUR OF BEAUTIFUL™ global spoken word initiative and movement was established. It is a global action focusing on deliverance from the stigma of colorism in communities of color across the globe. Karen, through this initiative, is on a mission to liberate darkerskinned women from the colorism psyche by enabling them to write and perform their experiences through the spoken word. The spoken word workshops focus on delivering women from the stigma of colorism. The objective is to bring healing to the hurt and pain of rejection, separation and exclusion. Using music, panel discussions and Collaborate on Colorism Talkback Sessions women are experiencing healing and breakthrough. On April 8, 2020, The Colour Of Beautiful Global Video Project

was launched. The premise of this project is to film women of different nationalities across the globe in a “re-presentation” of the beauty of all colors from the lightest to the darkest with The Colour of Beautiful theme song. Karen is certified in Computer Graphics and Computer Programming with Web Technology. She has been awarded the Women Add Value Recognition Award by Ambassador Dr. Clyde Rivers and I Change Nations Governing Body and the Human Rights Global Commission. She has also received the Sharing My Voice Award from Black Belt Speakers and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Arts & Worship from Kayiwa International University in Uganda. On April 9, 2020, she was appointed as a World Civility Ambassador by iChange Nations™ and in January 2021 she had the honor of being inducted into the World Book of Greatness 2021.
