W.E. Greiner Theater presented a scene from "Raisin In The Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry for the Black History Month assembly. I feel proud of everyone involved!

I originally posted this with a version of "Steal Away" that adapted the Spiritual, altering its lyrics. A kind friend, Dr. Darrell St. Romain, helped me remember that utilizing it at an ICE protest would constitute an act of cultural misappropriation by a European American, no matter the good intentions. I thanked him for his help and hereby request your further assistance in choosing other music that would be appropriate for a mass protest choir.
Imagine an ever-growing choir turning out fully robed (and in street clothes) to places where ICE and the People's government are both being called on to choose the path of civilization over #InternmentCrueltyExecutions If you'd like to join the group gathering (next step is scheduling), please reply to let me know. Will you send this on to others?
