About this show

The Public Theater's PUBLIC FORUM plays The Town Hall, a 1,495-capacity theater in Times Square, on Tuesday, December 1. Also on the bill: Ava DuVernay. The show starts at 7 PM.

Ava DuVernay's acclaimed new film 14th explores the birth, legacy, and monumental importance of the 14th Amendment - the way that its guarantees of citizenship rights and due process have helped America to take enormous strides in the direction of its founding ideals. Inspired by DuVernay's film, and in collaboration with DuVernay herself, Public Forum will present a special one-night event bringing the world of the 14th Amendment to life. Featuring historical texts and songs, clips from the film, and a conversation with DuVernay, featuring Alicia Keys and more, the evening will connect the fraught days of Reconstruction to the challenges of our own time.
