Tales of an African American

 

Oprah Winfrey in The Color Purple by djabonillojr.2008.

Oprah Winfrey will act a grandmother’s role in my screenplay. I envision her dress like this throughout my screenplay to demonstrate the type of clothing African American wore during the early 1900’s. The cane field in the background will be a set-design in the beginning of my screenplay.  The screenplay will focus on turning points for African Americans between 1865 and 1945. Events such as Voting Rights, Segregation, & Halem Renaissance will be portrayed.
