To The People Like Us
$ 25.00
The Youth Literary Advisory Board at 826 Boston teamed up with White Snake Projects to create an original opera exploring gentrification and its impact on the climate. In To the People Like Us, teen activist Constanza, aided by her vacillating friend Malakai, organizes her neighborhood against the Sirleaf Corporation, who intends to build a new development by razing their apartments, their park, and their bodega. Indigo, a newcomer to the neighborhood, attempts to make friends with them and joins their protest group. Sparks fly when Constanza makes a discovery about Indigo that changes all of their relationships with each other.
