    In celebration of Wright State University\u27s Martin Luther King commemoration and the 35th anniversary of the Bolinga Black Cultural Resources Center Ruby Dee, noted actress, author, and activist for social justice, has appeared in more than 40 films and countless Broadway plays during a 50-year stage and screen career. Dee was acclaimed for her acting in her late husband Ossie Davis\u27s satirical exploration of segregation, Purlie Victorious; in A Raisin in the Sun; her Ace Award-winning performance in Eugene O\u27Neill\u27s Long Day\u27s Journey into Night; and in Spike Lee\u27s Do the Right Thing. In 1965, she played Kate in The Taming of the Shrew and Cordelia in King Lear in the American Shakespeare Festival. She won an Emmy in 1991 for NBC\u27s Decoration Day. She and Davis received a Life Achievement Award, the highest honor bestowed by the Screen Actors Guild. Tireless human rights activists, Dee and Davis were close friends of Malcolm X (whom Davis eulogized as our own black shining prince ), and their production company produced the PBS special Martin Luther King: The Dream and the Drum. While remaining active in social causes, Dee has still found time to write plays, musicals, poetry books, and her one-woman show, My One Good Nerve.https://corescholar.libraries.wright.edu/archives_presidential_lecture_series/1067/thumbnail.jp

    No full text
    Lyman B. Hagen, of Arkansas State University, has written a helpful aid for students of the writings of Dee Brown. Brown is best known as the author of non-fiction like Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, but Hagen reminds us that Brown has also written novels, historical fiction, and children\u27s books. Hagen combines quotations from various reviews of Brown\u27s work with personal comments by Dee Brown himself to introduce the novice reader to the varied life and writings of this prolific and unconventional author. This book should prove very useful for all students of the American West
