SUMMARY:Stokely
DESCRIPTION:\n\nSTOKELY is an exploration of the life and legacy of Stokely Carmichael—later known as Kwame Ture—the architect of the Black Power movement. Set in 1998, two years after his diagnosis with prostate cancer, the play unfolds as Stokely records his memories with his mother, May Charles in Guinea, Africa. Through a non-linear structure, the piece interweaves historic moments with intimate reflections, revealing the deep personal relationships—especially with his mother—that shaped the man behind the movement. As his life drives towards its end, the question looms: will May Charles take up the mantle and carry forward his vision by building an institute in his name, preserving his writings, speeches, and spirit? Stokely asks what it truly means to leave a legacy—not just in the headlines of history, but in the hearts and hands of those left behind.\nSupported in partnership with Judith Manocherian.\n\n\n\n
