A former, self-confessed racist tell of the Civil Rights struggle, especially in St. Augustine.
Beauregard (\"Bo\") Stuart Lee, born and raised in St. Augustine, a former, self-confessed racist tells what happened in his home town, in the 1960\'s, during the Civil Rights struggle. He speaks of his atrocious behavior along with members of the clan, in our city, described by Martin Luther King, Jr, as the most violent city in America. Lee Weaver, playwright and actor, gives an emotional, dramatic performance, accompanied by 100 Power Point photos. A love story is employed as a vehicle for "The Witness", Weaver\'s most in-demand drama. His wife, Nanette plays the part of MJ Townes, a film documentarian, who has come to town to interview Bo for his unique perspective on this dark chapter in our history. An interview with the Weavers following a performance in Kalamazoo MI, may be seen here:
