Lyceum Event: American Apartheid

You are invited to attend and bring your classes to an exciting
Black History Month Lyceum event:

A multimedia staged reading of the play “
  • American Apartheid”
  • Thursday, Feb. 22, 9:30 a.m.
  • Clarkston Campus Jim Cherry Learning Resource Center Auditorium (Room 1100)
  • The play will end at 10:45 and a reception will follow.

Written by Wade Marbaugh and Paul Hudson, “American Apartheid” is the tale
of a volatile love triangle between a mixed-race woman passing as white, her
black fiancé and her new white love interest. It all unravels during the
Atlanta race riot of 1906. The play connects America’'s Jim Crow era with
today’'s repressive, violent political movements and states the need to end
all forms of apartheid for all humanity.
