A rare recorded version of actor James Earl Jones’ electrifying one-man show chronicling the turbulent life of Robeson. Singer/actor Paul Robeson’s music and political activism spoke to the hearts of Jews all over the world. As an African-American, he connected with the history of Jewish persecution. Robeson stood for black civil rights in America, and more broadly, for an international brotherhood. Angry, poignant and bitterly funny, Jones’ tour de force mixes songs and stories show more illustrating Robeson’s artistic achievements as well as his fight against the ill treatment accorded him by the United States.
