In 2013, Dominique graduated from Pace University with a B.A. in Theater.

Subverted

In 2014, Fishback wrote and performed in the Off-Off-Broadway production Subverted.

Subverted garnered Dominique a New York Innovative Theatre Award nomination for Outstanding Solo Performance. It explored Black identity in a system rooted in inequality from 20 different viewpoints.

”I want to make theater that changes lives,” Dominique said. ”I want to be a part of shows that are profound to people, shows that have beautiful messages and writing and music. I just want to touch hearts.”

Also in 2014, she began her professional on-screen career, appearing in an episode (The Busy Flea) of the Cinemax drama series The Knick.

In 2017, Dominique started to perform in HBO’s edgy 1970s-NYC-set series The Deuce as Darlene, a call girl who breaks away from the trade, enrolling in college. She also has a complicated relationship with Larry Brown (Gbenga Akinnagbe).

”I loved the fact that [Darlene] doesn’t play victim,” Fishback told Refinery29. ”She knows what she made a choice to do what she does, and she accepts that every step of the way.”

The Deuce concluded on October 28, 2019, after three seasons.

In 2019, The Deuce was included on Forbes “30 under 30 in Hollywood and Entertainment.”

The film centers around a teenage dealer (Dominique) and a police officer (Joseph) who must team with an ex-soldier (Jamie) to take down the group responsible for creating a pill that gives the user superpowers for five minutes.

”She’s everything I could’ve dreamed of, and I feel like she’s a manifestation of my 15-year-old self, who started writing spoken-word poetry and found her way into theater,” Dominique said in an interview about her character.

In 2021, Fishback portrayed Deborah Johnson in Judas and the Black Messiah, a biopic about FBI informant (LaKeith Stanfield) and the betrayal of Fred Hampton (Daniel Kaluuya), chairman of the Illinois chapter of the Black Panther Party in late-1960s Chicago.

The film is directed and produced by Shaka King.

Dominique portrayed Deborah Johnson, Fred Hampton’s girlfriend.

”Fortunately, it happened naturally,” Dominique told Roger Ebert about how she built her chemistry with Daniel Kaluuya. ”I mean, when we went to Chicago to meet Mama Akua, formerly known as Deborah Johnson, and Chairman Fred Hampton Jr, that was our first time getting to know each other.”

”I’m most proud of what we called ‘The Malcolm Scene,’ where they have their first kiss,” Fishback said in an interview with BuzzFeed. She added: ”One, because I’m an epic romantic — I’ve been waiting to play a love interest, so that scene had all the giggling and googly eyes and stuff like that.”
