Ending with Rita Dove and Edward P. Jones, explain how the themes of African American literature have changed. Select two other time periods and one writer from each time period. 500 words. You’ll quote from and analyze four writers. Two I haven’t selected; two I have selected: Jones and Dove. Then end with a conjecture on where African American literature may go, theme-wise, in the future. Consider what you’ve read across this semester to make that prophetic conjecture. 100 words. Total: 600 words.
