August Wilson was the first African American playwright to have a Broadway theater bear his name, a fitting tribute to a dramatist who brought African American culture and lived experience to the stage. In this course, we will read, watch, and examine the first five plays in Wilson’s American Cycle, a tenplay series representing each decade of the African American culture’s 20th century. We will explore Wilson’s life and the influences behind his work while focusing on Gem of the Ocean, Joe Turner’s Come and Gone, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, and Seven Guitars, tracing his powerful interpretation, celebration, and preservation of African American culture.
Hosted by Derelicts Digest, enjoy this free, all ages, event to share your work, meet your people and have a chance to perform your work.
Open to the public, If you're not ready to share or just want to enjoy, grab a Bev from our Happy Hour and enjoy the vibes and intimacy of Club 509 located in the Kava Bar.

The 1960s is a decade wrapped in myth and misunderstanding. In this course, we will cut through that haze by turning to something powerful and concrete: the speeches of the era. The times and the conditions demanded these significant speeches. Together, we will listen to the voices that moved a nation and shaped history. With recordings preserved through television, video, and You- Tube, we will discover what these speeches still have to teach us today.
