“Though this book deals with the issues of race, gender, and class, it focuses on their repercussions on African American women in a different way. The historical oppressions and the struggle of African American dramatists, both male and female, have been exposed with a difference. Their hardship, leadership, motherhood, womanhood, intellect, and artistic expressions have enhanced the African American community, which has been exhibited in African American drama and theater.” —Dr. Morey Dipak Tryambak, Assistant Professor, University of Hyderabad, India.
