In connection with Black History Month, Washburn University is hosting the Kansas premiere of "Brothers of the Dust" by award-winning playwright Darren Canady this weekend. This family drama tells the story of siblings that return to their family farm in 1958 with very different ideas about the land and their legacy. Shows run from February 23rd through March 3rd.

<p>Prairie Journal is an opportunity to showcase high-profile, thought-provoking lectures, discussions and dialogues recorded throughout the region. There are so many fascinating people who come to this area, everyone from Supreme Court Justice Sonya Sotomayor to syndicated columnist Leonard Pitts.
