Summary

"A play about the imagined fault line between black and white lives by Claudia Rankine, the author of Citizen, The White Card stages a conversation that is both informed and derailed by the black/white American drama. The scenes in this one-act play, for all the characters' disagreements, stalemates, and seeming impasses, explore what happens if one is willing to stay in the room when it is painful to bear the pressure to listen and the obligation to respond..."--Publisher's description.
