In small-town Maryland, Jeff Browning is determined to give his newborn son every advantage by joining a local white supremacist group. However, unexpected ancestry test results complicate his plans, blurring the lines between "us" and "them." As Jeff struggles to keep up appearances, his carefully constructed narrative begins to fall apart when a prominent Black journalist and his daughter start probing for answers.

Amerikin, both darkly humorous and deeply empathetic, delves into the extremes we reach to protect our own, the self-deceptions we maintain, and the impact of division on everyone. Developed by Chisa Hutchinson as part of the Dorothy Strelsin New American Writers Group at Primary Stages, the play was highlighted in the 2018 Fresh Ink Reading Series.
