African-American Performance and Theatre History is an anthology of critical writings that explores the intersections of race; theater; and performance in America. Assembled by two respected scholars in black theater and composed of essays from acknowledged authorities in the field (Joseph Roach and Henry Louis Gates; Jr. among other); this volume is organized into four sections representative of the ways black theater; drama; and performance past and present interact and enact continuous social; cultural; and political dialogues. The premise behind the book is that analyzing African-American theater and performance traditions offers insight into how race has operated and continues to operate in American society. The only one-volume collection of its kind; this volume is likely to become the central reference for those studying black theater.

The book is good. my balloons werent so muchBy Daniel FarinaIm a beginner balloon artist. and by artist I mean most my balloons end up popped or looking nothing like they are supposed to. I bought this book in hopes that my current balloon skills would get better. I did learn to make a few of the easier balloons. but often found myself confused over what the author meant on certain things. Its sad to say (because I love buying books and recommending books. but watching free youtube videos was more effective in growing my skills in the balloon world. I give this book a 3 stars. because it was aight. The authors tone was great and funny. I just found it hard to follow at times. Again. I am a beginner and maybe once I get better referencing it back. I may change my opinion..0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. FunBy NancyIm learning. but its slow
