| Description |
NOT A GENUINE BLACK MAN, reveals a little-known chapter of Bay Area history. In 1971, San Leandro was named one of the most racist suburbs in America. Congressional hearings were held. The next year, the then eight-year-old Brian Copeland and his African-American family moved to San Leandro. In a monologue that's both funny and poignant, Brian explores how surroundings make us who we are.
These performances are a benefit for The Marsh, which is really determined to buy those long-awaited new chairs, and our chance to salute Brians return to the Bay Area stage after his severe spinal chord injury.
Join us for an evening of laughter tears and sociology.NOTE: No one under 14 years old will be admitted.
