Dutchman and the Slave: Two Plays by LeRoi Jones
fast-paced
4.0
And is always **** white people :)
I must say, I would like to learn more about Leroi Jones as an activist to know if his activism included Black feminism and the LGBTQ+ community because of some of the content.
But both plays were incredibly thought provoking and he created such interesting world for a Black man to be in. The scenarios were close to bizzare but not that far off to what could really be.
The Dutchman is so frickin wild. Lula is detestable, Clay pissed me off until he didn't and then he pissed me off again.
The Slave was not at all what I thought it would.
But what is this fascination with his Black male characters being intimate with white woman :/
