Stop by the Maryland Center for History and Culture this Saturday and watch as students from BaltSchoolArts bring history to life in two free theater performances, informed by their research in MCHC's H. Furlong Baldwin Library.
Decades before Rosa Parks, four Black Baltimore women sued the Steamboat “Sue” for inferior rooms and won their case. Their victory inspired further civil rights action in the courts by Baltimore’s Black community. Using primary sources and rigorous research, theatre sophomores bring these stories to life.
