Dr. Shiu begins with an in-depth analysis of black activist W.E.B. Du Bois’ early literary efforts and follows with a brief introduction of Ralph Ellison’s "Invisible Man." He then moves on to discuss James Baldwin's groundbreaking collection of essays, "Notes of a Native Son." Next, he takes viewers on a journey through two of Toni Morrison’s better-known novels, and Dr. Shiu ends with one of his favorites, the best-selling black detective novelist Walter Mosley. Part of the "Great African American Authors: Extended Interviews" series.
