    VIRGINIA STATE UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF STUDENT ACTIVITIES

    MALCOLM,MARTIN,MEDGAR
    WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY FAMED JOURNALIST A. PETER BAILEY
    February 24th, 2012 * Virginia Hall * 10:00 AM * Free to All
    Malcolm,Martin,Medgar is an enlightening, dramatic reading (by VSU students) of the play depicting a posthumous meeting of these Civil Rights giants in hereafter. The two-act play deals with the three characters, not only as leaders and legends, but as the fathers of thirteen children whom they left behind. As noted by Bailey, "another question raised is whether they had the right to leave thirteen young children fatherless, even for a righteous cause." According to Bailey, the play "contains my perceptions on how the three heroic warriors would respond to events and individuals in today's world. One of the questions I raise in the play is whether we as a group have proven worthy of their ultimate sacrice."
