African American Scenebook (Source Books on Education)

Kathryn Ervin and Ethel Pitts Walker have compiled a delicately balanced and impeccably coherent anthology of some of the best scenes from the past sixty years of African American theatre. Each scene subtly articulates African American culture in a Western frame and explores universal themes embedded in unique characters, stories, languages, and time periods. Theatrically appropriate for secondary students, "African American Scenebook" also provides unique opportunities for classroom discussion about the difficult issues relating to race in America.Kathryn Ervin is the author of 'African American Scenebook (Source Books on Education)', published 1999 under ISBN 9780815334484 and ISBN 0815334486.
