American jazz grew out of the slavery experience, but it was the fervor
and flavor of waves of Eastern European Jewish immigrants who
transformed it into a universal art experience. Filled with delightful
clips from Yiddish theatre, Tin Pan Alley, Broadway and Hollywood, this
energy-packed documentary pays homage to the origins and fusion of
Jewish and African-American musical traditions. Cleveland Playhouse
Associate Artistic Director Seth Gordon leads a post-viewing discussion.

Honor Dr. King's legacy with an interfaith discussion focusing on the

Roan Lining, Director of Multicultural Affairs at Ursuline College, the

Tracey Lind, Trinity Cathedral; Imam Abbas Ahmad, First Cleveland
