For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf

Please check out Ntosake Shange's choreo-poetic full-length one-act play from the library.

Read the play for Monday, Dec. 8. Be prepared to discuss the play's theme, its style, its structure, and how it differs from the plays we have read so far. As you read, fill out an index card with questions about the text or play, observations you noted while reading the play text, or personal comments about the play text and/or language. Your index card should be turned in with your name on it on Dec. 8 at the beginning of class.
