What Unites Us? What Divides Us?
An investigation of our nation’s founding principles
in partnership with the Rhode Island Council for the Humanities (RICH) for Arts & Humanities Month 2005
This is a 40 minute program in our unique readers-theatre style that explores issues that “keep the complex world alive”, issues like class, race, sexuality and language. These issues can either unite or divide us as human beings.
