Chosen out of several dozen "anti-lynching" plays, most written by African American women between 1916 and 1934, are four one-acts which will be presented through spring of 2017 in the Portland Metro area. In light of recent violent acts against people of color, collaborating professional artists are committed to sharing these plays in ways which elicit greater understanding of yesterday's events relating to today's environment. The intention is to shed light on past atrocities, and to inspire open dialogue about ways in which these historical events affect us today.
