August Wilson and Black Aesthetics by Prof. Sandra G. Shannon (Editor), Prof. Dana A. Williams (Editor)

Offers new essays that address issues raised in Wilson's "The Ground on Which I Stand" speech. Essays and interviews range from examinations of the presence of Wilson's politics in his plays to the limitations of these politics on contemporary interpretations of Black aesthetics. Also included is Sybil Roberts' A Liberating Prayer: A Lovesong for Mumia, that, for several seasons, has played to sold out houses, but had not been published prior to the hardcover edition of this book. With an updated Introduction assessing Wilson's legacy following his death in 2005.
