Thurgood - This event is FREE and open to the public.
7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
In honor of Black History Month, Heights Community Congress (HCC) presents a special performance of Thurgood. Gorge Stevens Jr.'s one-man show depicts the life of Thurgood Marshall, the first African-American Supreme Court justice, and his role in the historic decision on the Brown v. Board of Education case. Staged by Ensemble Theater and starring Greg White in the role of Thurgood Marshall.

Friday, February 26 • 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Hope Lutheran Church – 2222 North Taylor Rd, Cleveland Heights, OH 44112

This "gift to the community" is intended to provoke thought about how the past impacts the present and our daily personal interactions with each other. HCC is concerned that the racial divide in the United States is getting broader not narrower. It's important to revisit the civil rights struggle as the worthy goals of equal opportunity for all are promoted and upheld.

This event is FREE and open to the public. The play is about 90 minutes and HCC will host a short reception following the show.
