"What I saw was black life, presented on its own terms,
on a grand and epic scale, with all its richness and fullness, in a
language that was vibrant and which, made attendant to everyday life,
ennobled it, affirmed its value, and exalted its presence… It
defined not only the character of black American life, but also its
conscience."
–Playwright August Wilson
on Romare Bearden
