Produced by Ben Affleck<\/a>, Matt Damon<\/a> and Fanshen Cox DiGiovanni<\/a>, this extraordinary one-woman show incorporates filmed images, photographs and animation to tell the story of how the notion of \u2018race\u2019 came to be in the United States and how it affects Cox DiGiovanni\u2019s relationship with her father. A moving memoir, One Drop<\/a><\/em> takes audiences from the 1700s to the present, to cities all over the U.S. and to West <\/a>and East Africa<\/a>, where both father and daughter spent time in search of their \u2018racial\u2019 roots. The ultimate goal of the show is to encourage everyone to discuss \u2018race\u2019 and racism openly and critically. Watch the trailer here<\/a>. The performance will be followed by a brief discussion with Ms. DiGiovanni.<\/p>\n
