Slavery and Sentiment on the American Stage, 1787–1861: Lifting the Veil of Black - Cambridge Studies in American Theatre and Drama
Nathans, Heather S. (University of Maryland, College Park)
For almost a hundred years before Uncle Tom's Cabin burst on to the scene in 1852, the American theatre struggled to represent the evils of slavery. Slavery and Sentiment examines how both black and white Americans used the theatre to fight negative stereotypes of African Americans in the United States.
