Up until the late 20th century, African American theater was not a part of the mainstream world of arts. In this hour, we will discuss how plays like "The Meeting" have bringt African American history to life.
Guests:
Melissa Maxwell, director of "Trouble in Mind"
Anthony Gibbs, Unit Manager of Community Programs at the Ohio History Connection
Mark E. Pinkston, producer and director of "The Meeting" as well as the actor for Malcolm X
Keith Carter, actor playing Martin Luther King Jr. in "The Meeting"
