- Title
Afterword: Writing Black Children, Writing "Black Aliveness".
- Authors
King, Nicole
- Abstract
The author responds to editors Ellen Butler Donovan and Laura Dubek's call, in this special issue of the publication, to traverse the boundaries or the apartheid that keeps scholars of African American literature oblivious to the conceptual and discursive terrain comprised by children's and young adult fiction by black American writers. He offers an intertextual reading of "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry" by Mildred D. Taylor and "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee.
