Stokely: The Unfinished Revolution

Stokely: The Unfinished Revolution

Court Theatre
5535 S. Ellis Avenue Chicago

Civil rights activist Kwame Ture, born Stokely Carmichael, was a towering icon; a man of immense domestic and international importance; a man who refused to back down, step aside, or remain silent. But he was also just that: a man. Blending the historical and the personal with astonishing grace, Stokely: The Unfinished Revolution depicts one man's rise to prominence and the many people who made it possible, begging the question: what does it mean to trust someone with a movement when you can't trust them with your heart?
