Strange Like Me
Gain a new perspective on white privilege and reverse discrimination at “Strange Like Me” Tuesday, Oct. 2 in the CMU Ballroom at 7 p.m.
“Strange Like Me” begins with a monologue that lays bare the ugliness of hate, setting the stage for a lively discussion of diversity. The program follows students as they attempt to navigate the sometimes difficult terrain of multicultural campus relationships. During talk-backs, students can confront the characters and voice their own opinions on issues of racism, sexism, and homophobia. “Strange Like Me” is a 90-minute program that gets college students talking about diversity.
