Connie Rice is an accomplished lawyer, activist, writer and feminist. After graduating from Harvard University, she became a lawyer for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund in Los Angeles, CA. She began to witness incredible disparities in wealth and mental health services, especially for women and children. A strong advocate for women, Rice eventually came to believe that women in blue collar communities could not be helped until men were empowered as well. Rice worked with LA Gangs to maintain gang truces and litigated class action law suits against police misconduct and discrimination. Her new book, POWER CONCEDES NOTHING, chronicles her life and her community work. Women like Connie Rice are the real life inspiration behind Nefertiti.

(Promotional video for the season one premiere of Southside Nefertiti.)

‘Fist of the Southstar’ stars our heroine, Nefertiti, a single mom and superhero who looks out for the less fortunate in her Southside Nefertiti. She and her best friend Tenora maintain ‘The Truce’, an informal agreement between crime crews that keeps violence away from innocents. But when a young, upstart gang decides to violate the truce, Nefertiti fears the normal life she has tried to build for herself and her son may be destroyed forever.
