| Staged Reading Wilmington Reconstructed Mouths of Babes Theatre Company Sat., Feb. 23, 2 PM (Free and open to the public) In November of 1898, a group of white supremacists seized the city of Wilmington in a violent coup, expelling prominent black citizens and destroying Wilmington's very own black newspaper, The Daily Record. The event was covered up and whitewashed for the better part of a century. This work-in-progress documentary play by Mouths of Babes Theatre Company follows the New York Times Magazine writer John Jeremiah Sullivan as he enlists 8th graders to track down and recover lost articles of The Daily Record, literally reconstructing the lost history of that period, and bringing to light voices that hate sought to destroy.
