The Freedom Center Presents "The Hillsboro Story"
The Hillsboro Story, by Susan Banyas, is a dramatic portrayal of the North's first test case after the landmark 1954 Brown v. Board of Education. While Brown v. Board ruled "separate but equal" schools unconstitutional, the initial ruling was only the beginning - the schools still had to be integrated, not just in the South, but also in the North. The Hillsboro Story is a unique performance piece integrating movement, monologues and visual images, backed by an evocative original score by jazz composer David Ornette Cherry
