description: 
The speaker claims that African American authors have been unable to escape racial stereotyping. However, he highlights a writer who has moved beyond anger and has developed concerns for his or her craft in relation to the larger world of art and ideology. Literature has been a medium through which African Americans can explain racial situations, arriving at a new self perception and self definition in relation to the world. The speaker urges writers to experiment with means of expressions to bring richness and diversity to the field, regardless of race.
