Discussing "Greenwood, An American Dream...Destroyed" on LV Arts Salon

Hosts George Miller and Kate Scuffle discuss the reading of "Greenwood, An American Dream...Destroyed" coming to SteelStacks in Bethlehem on Monday, October 19th. They talk with award-winning director and performer, Lynnie Godfrey, and playwright Celeste Bedford Walker.

"Greenwood" tells the true story of the destruction of an African American section of Tulsa, Oklahoma by deputized white citizens in 1921 through the perspective of the fictionalized Boley family. This riot left the thriving community of 600 businesses burned to the ground.
