Sandra Garrett Shannon

Shannon (African American literature, Howard U.) considers how African American historical playwright Wilson uses poetry, the blues, Romare Bearden's art, and other cultural artifacts in his series of plays dramatizing moments in African American history since 1900. She identifies and analyzes recurring themes in the plays, such as black migration to the north and communication gaps between men and women, and interviews the playwright on his dramatic vision.
