Outstanding Academic Title, CHOICEThe first oral history to fully explore the contributions of black women intellectuals to the Black Arts Movement, Sistuhs in the Struggle reclaims a vital yet underresearched chapter in African American, womens, and theater history. This groundbreaking study documents how black women theater artists and activistsmany of whom worked behind the scenes as directors, designers, producers, stage managers, and artistic directorsdisseminated the black aesthetic and emboldened their communities.Drawing on nearly thirty original interviews with wellknown artists such as Ntozake Shange and Sonia Sanchez as well as lessstudied figures including distinguished lighting designer Shirley Prendergast, dancer and choreographer Halifu Osumare, and threetime Tonynominated writer and composer Micki Grant, La Donna L. Forsgren centers black womens cultural work as a crucial component of civil rights and black power activism. Sistuhs in the Struggle is an essential collection for theater scholars, historians, and students interested in learning how black womens art and activism both advanced and critiqued the ethos of the Black Arts and Black Power movements.
