As with many statistics, there's some dispute about this one: every 28 hours a black person in America is killed by a vigilante, security guard, or police officer in the United States.
It gave a name to the Every 28 Hours project of plays begun at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.
OSF artists and theaters in other parts of the country created one-minute plays about the subject matter, and OSF and collaborators present plays and discussion at an event Monday (October 10). OSF Community Producer Claudia Alick created the project; she joins us with an update.
