Maryland History Lecture Series: “Emancipation Continues: War & Peace”

Set in 2018, diverse members of a local community organization “battle” to create a show for Black History Month that celebrates great African American speakers, authors, artists and entertainers in the 1940s and 1950s. Throughout their meetings, the members provide examples of vocal and instrumental music, dance, poetry, oratory and history of the period to determine works worthy of presentation to their audience.
