Directed by Calvin College Professor of Theatre Stephanie Sandberg and É«É«À² Professor of Theatre Dwandra Nikole Lampkin, and with support from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, "Check Your Privilege" has been created from dozens of interviews with people in the É«É«À² campus community. The script was written verbatim from these interviews and allows the audience to hear the words of University students, staff and faculty.

The É«É«À² Department of Theatre is honored to be a contributor to the success of the Kellogg Grant for Racial Healing through the integration of the arts. The work is community-based action research intended to deepen audiences' understanding of racial inequality and consider actions to intervene in and mitigate its impact.
