In this hard-hitting anthology, Ishmael Reed and Carla Blank have
invited a diverse group of informed and accomplished writers, both
women and men, who are rarely heard to comment on the long-standing
bigotry on Broadway towards many different ethnic minorities. How
do intellectuals and scholars feel about how members of their
ethnic groups are portrayed on Broadway? How would we know? Very

worthy and which are flops, and above all, be heard or read. The
American critical fraternity is an exclusive club. In this
