This week Central State University presents a play that rewrites recent history.

In the summer of 2014, John Crawford was walking the aisles in the Beavercreek Walmart and saw a BB gun for sale. He picked it up. Another customer called 911. The police came and killed Crawford within seconds. After Crawford’s death, Bomani Moyenda helped organize weekly vigils. More than 200 people staged a die-in at the Walmart on Christmas Eve that year, shutting down the store and bringing police cars from all over. Then Moyenda met Crawford’s father at one of the vigils.
