Bob Weick (of Dorchester, NH) will present this one-man show to the University Community on Tuesday, 5 March, in Boyd Hall Room 144, at 6pm. We think you should be there!
The play (see the synopsis and reviews, here: http://www.ironagetheatre.org/marx.html is a celebration and remembrance of Marx's positions on social justice -- from the perspectives of history, civil rights, political science, economics ... there's something for everyone! Above all, it's written by Howard Zinn, a giant in the social justice movement, recently lost to us.
Karl Marx, 1818–1883...
Howard Zinn, 1922-2010.
This is quite a pairing, in that nearly 100 years separate the life spans of these two men (and then there's Bob Weick! ;-) ) . Marx has the reputation of being opaque, difficult to understand. Zinn's reputation of course is just the opposite; his appeal was that he made that opacity seem easily accessible to the masses.
We hope to see you there!
