Black Anthology, which began in 1989, is the university’s oldest cultural show. This year’s show, entitled “Metro,” explores the challenges of criminality and profiling in the lives of African-Americans as well as issues of identity, race, and sexuality. This theatrical production features acting, poetry, and a performance by Stereotypes, one of Washington University’s premier acapella groups. It is student-written, directed and performed, and will run in the Edison Theatre this Friday, February 1 and Saturday, February 2 at 7:00 pm. There is a pre-show discussion on Saturday, February 2 at 6:30pm in Edison Theatre with Professor Sowande Mustakeem.
Tickets are $10, or $8 for groups of 10 or more. To purchase a Black Anthology t-shirt with this year’s logo, contact Assistant Dean Wilmetta Toliver-Diallo, Ph.D. Also, stop by any Bon Appetit campus eatery this week and purchase your 2013 Black Anthology Metro Cookie!
