Shannon discusses Wilson, 'Amistad'
By La Tanya Harry | February 16, 1998By La Tanya Harry Howard University English Professor Sandra Shannon compared Montgomery Fellow August Wilson's play, "Joe Turner's Come and Gone," to Debbie Allen and Steven Spielberg's film "Amistad" Thursday for a 30-person audience in Alumni Hall. Shannon said both works described the preservation of African culture in America, which she said is important because, "We cannot move forward unless we know where we came from." In "Joe Turner's Come and Gone," the protagonist, Loomis, is kidnapped for seven years by Turner and forced to work for him.
