Sweet Honey in the Rock offers civil-rights message

When I was a child my mother took me to the old Carolina Theater in downtown Durham. One of many childhood trips, this visit was unique because she took me up to the highest balcony, up the back steps. These back steps led down to a boarded up back entrance, and up to a drafty, steep balcony, where black people sat when they came to the theater from the 1920s to the 1960s.
