Content:
Essays on the multitalented, multigenred (sci-fi, juvenile lit, detective novels, etc.) African-American writers whose careers flourished after 1955, and the themes and issues reflected in their works: more strong black female protagonists; a move away from the traditional reverence for Christianity; concern with the black family, especially with black fathers; interactions within the black community; and a move toward not just recording history but interpreting history
