2016 Revised, Reduced-Cast Version Solomon Eisner, a former freelance journalist, is trying to find a way to repair his broken relationship with his biracial son, Danny. Sol has tried to protect Danny from a dangerous past, but now he decides to videotape himself telling about this dark chapter from his youth that led to Danny's birth. The play dramatizes Sol's attempt to save his son from a descent into violence, as Sol travels back to the 1970s, chronicling his quest to prove the innocence of Savage James, an outspoken Black boxer who has been convicted of murdering a Jewish couple during the Newark riots. The play alternates between these two realities (the 1970s and the present), as Sol tries to rediscover the thread of belief and conviction that can give his son an understanding of events that Sol himself has not been able to come to terms with.
