Carry Me Back to Morningside Heights

Carry Me Back to Morningside Heights is an American play about a young Jewish man who insists on becoming a slave to an African-American law student as a personal penance for the years of wrongs whites have done to blacks.
The 1968 Broadway production was directed by Sidney Poitier and featured Louis [Gossett Jr.], Diane Ladd and Cicely Tyson. It ran for seven performances.
The play was profiled in the William Goldman book The Season: A Candid Look at Broadway.
