Like theater in the time of Bertolt Brecht or the WPA, Reed's new work (under the direction of multiple AUDELCO winner Rome Neal) challenges the narrative of commercial theater and mainstream historical accounts.

Reed's play brings to the forefront those characters who are absent from "Hamilton, The Revolution": slaves, Native Americans, indentured servants and Harriet Tubman.

Petrosino Square In 1920, the United States enforced the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution which banned liquor production, public consumption and the selling of anything alcoholic. This catapulted the criminal world and helped the mob monopolize and grow their illegal business of alcohol. It made some of the most vicious gangsters gain fame and fortune. Illegal bars known as speakeasies opened by the thousands and served bootleg liquor to a thirsty public. On this tour, you will walk in the footsteps of the gangsters and visit some of the watering holes that served illegal liquor during Prohibition. There you can sip a craft cocktail served by some of the top bartenders in New York City. While sipping on your now "legal" alcoholic beverage you will hear stories of the Mafia and how it infiltrated into society. At the end of the tour you will be a "wiseguy" about Prohibition and the Italian mob. Further, you will stop in for some of the best pizza in all of New York City. The tour kicks off at Lt. Petrosino Square. Kids Create - Jamaica Bay Library Each week we'll do a fun and engaging craft or art project. Bring your creative side and let's create!

A History of Race During Reconstruction - Brooklyn Historical Society In the Antebellum South, communities of free mixed-race Americans were not uncommon.

Author Daniel Brook explores these communities in his book, The Accident of Color, and dives into how a more complex idea of ethnic identity can challenge the oppression of racial absolutism that continues to exist today.

Opening Reception - El Taller Latino Americano "What is the human being?" This universal question has never lost its relevancy. Part of the answer is that being human means embracing cultural diversity, yet humanity also requires valuing people as individuals. For those in caravans at the US border as well as immigrants who are already here, being human is holding on to aspiration in spite of accidents of birth. For others, it is a reverence for natural and social systems, as elaborated by artistic discourse. "Tribe" nowadays is defined by ethnicity, national origin, language, art work, etc, and focuses on underlining the diversity of life. Curatorial Team: Luchia Meihua Lee - Jennifer Pliego -Sarah Walko- John Ensor Parker -Alexandra Wang SECTION I. URBAN CARAVAN - Focuses on world caravans, that is, all those who choose to leave the hometown looking for a better life on the material or spiritual level.
