| Summary |
'Black Diamond' interrogates contemporary connections and discontinuities between the Africans in Liberia and African Americans in the US. Set in 1999, the play opens in the middle of the second Liberian civil war, which eventually resulted in the overthrow of despot Charles Taylor and his arrest as a war criminal. At issue in this drama is the question of what should be the responsibility of the US to this war-torn African state racked by genocidal atrocities and human rights violations. |
