Play Title:A Down Payment on Manhood: The Greensboro Four
Runtime:31-60 minutes
Synopsis:A DOWN PAYMENT ON MANHOOD: THE GREENSBORO FOUR
by Nicole C. Kearney

A Down Payment on Manhood: The Greensboro Four takes place in 1960 when four African American males, freshman at North Carolina A&T University took a stand for their dignity and civil rights by staging a sit-in at the ‘white only’ lunch counter of the Woolworth's in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina, after the store refused to serve them. This historical incident inspired similar student movements across the South, helping to abolish segregation at eating establishments. These four young men are considered pioneers in the civil rights movement who reignited a stalled Civil Rights Movement and inspired young people across the country to get involved in the movement.
