Section Info:
James Baldwin and Lorraine Hansberry were activists and artists who were also dear friends during the turbulent sexual and racial politics of the 1950s and 60s. What is exciting about both of them is recently their work and life has been reintroduced to the world through documentaries, biographies, and reprints of their plays, essays, and other literatures. This course will compare the production and reception of these fascinating and controversial artists in their own historical context with the way students and thinkers approach them now. There will weekly writings and three short papers.
