Abstract
The Trial (1956), a black nationalist play by Louis X (Louis Farrakhan), was expanded into a musical pageant called Orgena (1959) and performed in major venues by “The Muslims” of Boston’s Mosque No. 11, including two nights at Carnegie Hall. The history of The Trial and its development into Orgena generate discussion of the theology, politics, and cultural legacy of the Nation of Islam.
