I'm still conflicted. Love Shange's play. I've read the poem and seen the play many times. LOVE IT! Yes, IT is very empowering as the focus in on black female identity. His addition of Janet Jackson and her entire storyline were ANNOYING. Ugh. Also, he only included a snippet of one of my favorite pieces. It just didn't fit in with the story he was telling. However, the piece about Toussaint ended on a very sweet note. *sigh* Oh well. I just hope this encourages more people to go out and buy the book.
