in a post-apocalyptic world, two aliens manage to save a couple hundred humans. but when a futuristic genome mapping experiment reveals the horrors of slavery and its ramifications lasting centuries later, they wonder if they made the right choice. commissioned by Bishop Arts Theatre Center as a response to the anthology "The 1619 Project" which was developed by Nikole Hannah-Jones, this play illuminates what our bloodlines can never erase and explores whether humanity is composed of more good than bad - are we worth saving in the end?
