Kkk Play

Daniel speaks with playwright Emily Mann who's play 'Greensboro: A Requiem' tells the story of a massacre in 1979, where members of the Ku Klux Klan shot and killed 5 demonstrators who were protesting Klan activities. The play is based on interviews of survivors of the attack, as well as of Klansmen who took part in it. The play is being staged at the McCarter Theater in Princeton, New Jersey.
