of Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas, actors will rehash the debates over slavery, in the context of the time. This eye-opening event will raise awareness of attitudes toward slavery and race in the 19th century. Due to the sensitive nature of the material,
the program is recommended for middle school-age through adult audiences. After the one-hour debate, audience members will be invited to ask questions of Lincoln and Douglas, played by Fred Priebe and Len Steinberg, respectively.</span><span style="mso-fareast-language:JA">
