August Wilson and Black Aesthetics 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 two seasons, has played to sold out houses, but that until now has not been published.
