ABOUT THE SHOW
"You do what you think is right and let the law catch up." So said Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, who changed the face of American jurisprudence. He argued and won the Brown v. Board of Education decision, ending racial segregation in the schools, after a long and strategic journey that began with ending the "separate but equal" mandate in Maryland law schools. Spend an evening with the late Justice at this one-man show, and consider just how far we've come... or have we?
If this production was a movie, it would be rated PG-13 due to language and heavy subject matter. Please see the Parental Guidance for more information.
