About this Event

FORGOTTEN includes 22 original songs that trace historic events including the Ford Hunger March, Battle of the Overpass, and the Flint sit-down strike. A central character is the Rev. Lewis Bradford, who hosted the Detroit radio show “The Forgotten Man’s Hour,” and who was found dead in 1937 on the Ford Rouge shop floor, leading to an investigation forty years later. Other historic characters include Henry and Clara Ford, Harry Bennett, and Father Charles Coughlin.
