DESCRIPTION:Labor history comes alive in this film of the stage production of musical 
 The Moment Was Now.\n\nThe Moment Was Now takes place in post-civil war 
 Baltimore in 1869, a turning point in U.S. history when “America almost 
 did the right thing”.  The contemporary themes of the search for racial 
 and economic justice and women’s rights reverberate throughout the 
 musical. \n\nThe story reveals the impassioned search for unity among the 
 dynamic leaders of powerful social movements during Reconstruction. The 
 conflicts and possibilities unfold in music and spoken word at a meeting 
 convened by Frederick Douglass. Hope hangs in the balance.\n\nConceived and 
 Created by Gene Bruskin In collaboration with Darryl LC Moch, Director; 
 Glenn Pearson, Musical Director; and Chester Burke, Jr., Assistant Musical 
 Director.\n\nSponsored by the Alliance for Social and Economic 
 Justice.\n\nA discussion with the playwright will occur after the online 
 film presentation.\n\nFor a 2 minute preview, open this
