Sherman Town: Baseball, Apple Pie and the Klan

December 6, 2010 at 7:30 p.m.


Every Labor Day in Shermantown – a town named by blacks freed by Union Army Gen. Sherman after he took Atlanta in 1864 – thousands of Klansmen gathered for an annual national meeting at Stone Mountain where a large relief memorial depicts Confederate Heroes. This play is about the co-existence of the town’s black community with the Ku Klux Klan in the 1940s.
