READING CONTEMPORARY AFRICAN AMERICAN DRAMA KAR...

Contemporary African American dramatists such as Amiri Baraka  James Baldwin  August Wilson 
and Suzan-Lori Parks as well as Lorraine Hansberry  Alice Childress  and Pearl Cleage find
their creative inspiration in historical events from slavery to the civil rights movement. From
the Emmett Till-inspired character in Baldwin's Blues for Mister Charlie to Parks's recreation
of Lincoln and Booth  these playwrights show that history is the mirror that shapes the
identities of African American writers and characters.
