I looked forward all day to livestream Forrest Whitaker from the Schomburg on Monday 22, at 7pm. First the time for his appearance was pushed forward to 7 from 8pm. Unfortunately at 7pm as I sat anticipating this talk back since I saw the play Hughie on Wednesday 2/17/16; disappointment became blistering. An announcent on my computer indicated this event contrary to prior advertisement would not to streamed.
Yes, it should be great.
