Now Let Me Fly was commissioned for the national celebration of the 50th anniversary of Brown v. Board through a generous contribution from Washburn University and was first produced by the Brown Foundation.

"As one person wrote afterward, "[I want] to congratulate you on a marvelous...moment...it brought the black and white community out together in a way that I have not seen it since I have been here."
