Join the Paul Robeson Cultural Center as we commemorate Paul Robeson’s 125th birthday during Robeson Week for a performance/lecture with Bryonn Bain, sharing stories of resistance, justice, art, and activism. This event will feature highlights and "behind the scenes" experiences from Bain’s award-winning one-man hip-hop theater and spoken word production – Lyrics from Lockdown (executive produced by Harry Belafonte) – based on his wrongful incarceration while at Harvard Law School and his connection to a poet and California choir boy wrongfully sentenced to Death Row at 17 years old.
