    Anyone ever tell you history is dull, tedious and irrelevant? Not us. And for some particularly fascinating and relevant insights into black history, ditch the textbooks and head to these stage shows, which explore everything from the politics in midcentury professional sports to the struggle for identity in 20th century America and the racial tensions that can still exist today.

During the debate, Rahm Emanuel mentioned how a Simeon student approached him at an “L” stop and impressed him with his story of an after-school arts program that he co-created with a fellow junior at Simeon.
