Clip: 4/21/2022 | 2m 11sVideo has Closed Captions
A new opera explores the life of a Black man in 18th-century London.
When it comes to the stories told about Black people, 18th century London might not be the first time and place that comes to mind. But composer Errollyn Wallen is hoping to change that with Quamino's Map, a new opera being staged at Chicago Opera Theater.
