City College

Rex Obano's drama tells the story of Rashaan Tilley, a university professor of black history who faces career and personal reprisals for suggesting slavery never happened.

When a shy but brilliant student accuses a charismatic and controversial professor of plagiarising her black history thesis, she is roundly ignored. With no-one left to turn to, she resorts to a campaign of activism which threatens to expose his hidden past. By Rex Obano.
