Sunday, February 25, Carolina Public Humanities is teaming up with UNC Digital and Lifelong Learning to present a one-man show by Sonny Kelly called “The Ongoing Fight for Freedom: Stories of Black Veterans.” In just over an hour, Kelly takes on two dozen roles, spotlighting Black veterans and freedom fighters throughout American history – many of them from North Carolina. The show takes place at 3:00 p.m. in the Friday Center; it’s free, but you need to reserve a spot in advance. (Click here to reserve your seat.)
Sonny Kelly joins Aaron to discuss the show, along with Christie Norris, who heads up CPH’s Carolina K-12 program.
