When one of the few African American students at liberal Belmont College
begins receiving hate mail, the campus erupts, first with shock, then
with mutual recrimination as faculty and students alike try to prove
their own tolerance by condemning one another.
At the center of this maelstrom is Sarah Daniels, the dean of students.
As the administration sponsors public "race forums" and the students
start their activist groups, Sarah is forced to explore her own feelings
of racism. Her self-examination leads to some surprising discoveries
and painful insights, the consequences of which even she can't predict.
The production is directed by Tara Lonzo.
