2. Path to Freedom

The Hurrah Players and Clear Vision Edutainment are teaming up to reboot the stage-play “Path to Freedom.” An original stage-play written by Corey Staten, “Path to Freedom” traces the evolution of African-American culture to medieval West Africa, through slavery in America, into the Post Reconstruction era, all the way to the inauguration of President Barak Obama. Travel through time with historical figures such as Mansa Musa of 14th Century Mali, 18th Century slave rebel Jimmy Kato, anti-lynching journalist Ida B. Wells, World War II hero Doris Miller and television producer and creator of Soul Train, Don Cornelius, as history comes to life through the music, dance and colorful stories from African-American culture.
