Not for Sale/Not in our Neighborhood
3/6 - Not for Sale/Not in our Neighborhood
Join us for a special event as the Minnesota History Theatre presents scenes from two new plays, Not for Sale/ Not in our Neighborhood, about the shameful history of 20th century housing segregation right here in the heart of the liberal Twin Cities. A discussion of the tragic events that gave the lie to the myth of Minnesota Nice will follow the presentation.

Patron comments about this "timely, interesting" program that showed an important era of Minnesota history included: "Excellent program. As someone who did not grow up in the Twin Cities I learned a lot about racial attitudes here in the 1960s. Many thanks to the History Theater performers and playwright!"
