Strom Thurmond is Not a Racist

Strom Thurmond is Not a Racist is a political fantasia about growing up the bi-racial love child of a professional racist. It traces the relationship between Senator Thurmond and his “illegitimate” daughter, Essie Mae Washington Williams. In this startling new play Thomas Bradshaw crafts an unforgettable portrait of our infamous US Senator, known for being good to his “mulatto yard child.”
