Black History Live: Harriet Tubman
Black History Live: Harriet Tubman
Saturday, February 8, 2025 (5:30 PM - 7:00 PM) (MST)
Description
Now in its 16th year, Colorado Humanities’ Black History Live tour is an annual recognition each February of the significant contributions African Americans have made and continue to make to art, culture, economic development, education, human rights, medicine, public services, politics, and sports. This year’s statewide tour will feature the living-history portrayal of Harriet Tubman by nationally acclaimed scholar/actor Becky Stone. The portrayal will be performed in a Chautauqua format, which is a first-person dramatization of a historical figure. The speaker’s monologue typically lasts 40 minutes, followed by 20 minutes of Q&A, first in character and then out of character as the scholar/performer.
This is a FREE event but registration is required.
