James Baldwin: This Time

This weeklong celebration of the groundbreaking writer and his work marks the beginning of our city's "Year of James Baldwin," to celebrate what would have been his 90th birthday. An amazing crew of writers and performers have signed on to talk, read and present new pieces, inspired by the Go Tell It on the Mountain author. Among those participating: Suzan-Lori Parks, Carl Hancock Rux, Fran Lebowitz, Colm Tóibín and HIlton Als. Go to newyorklivearts.org for the complete schedule.
