Explore the Impact of Cultural Appropriation Presentation

Join Dr. Tiffany Christian, PhD, for a presentation on the aspects and impacts of cultural appropriation on Saturday, August 13^th at 1:00 pm at Patrick Beaver Memorial Library. This program is presented in collaboration with the Hickory Community Theatre and is intended to explore modern issues associated with the historically-based musical MEMPHIS. The musical, which will be on stage at the theatre from August 26 through September 10, is loosely-based on the story of Dewey Phillips, a Memphis radio disc jockey. Phillips was the first to broadcast the young Elvis Presley’s debut record, “That’s All Right”.

This presentation is free and open to the public. Registration is not required, however there is a limit of 45 people, first come, first served. For more information, please call 304-0500.
