What does Broadway, a seemingly “innocent” and “frivolous” all-American art form have to say about race and white supremacy? Join Warren Hoffman, author of The Great White Way: Race and the Broadway Musical, in conversation with Elizabeth Wollman, Baruch College, as they discuss the ways in which Broadway musicals from Oklahoma! And West Side Story to Hamilton and The Book of Mormon shape and have been shaped by the racial ideologies that make the U.S. the nation it is today.
