Two events in 1921—more than a thousand miles apart—had a profound impact on African American history: the production of the all-Black musicalShuffle Alongand the Tulsa race massacre. A century on, an online workshop held at Princeton,Reactivating Memory, sought to explore the relationship between these seemingly disparate events and consider their legacy in Black life today. Our host Mélena Laudig sat down with Michael J. Love, A.J. Mohammed, and Dr. Catherine M. Young, all contributors to the team that organized this fascinating workshop. Tune in to learn more about how they balance performance, scholarship, and activism, and to dig into the history ofShuffle Alongand the legacy of Black theatrical practice.
