A performance by the Washington National Opera. Conducted by Roderick Cox. "In Harlem, a couple celebrates the birth of their firstborn--a boy, Black and beautiful. As the mother worries for their son's future in today's America, the father wrestles with his role as a police officer, a "Black man in blue." When the unimaginable happens and the son is killed by a white officer, they must face every family's worst fear." --
