Exact Information
I didn't have to go far for the book I was looking for. The book was almost brand new when I recieved it and I got a great deal. There was not a mark on it and the price was great. I had read some of the previous reviews from other online reviews that helped me make the decision to purchase this book.

Government sucks
I think that the government did nothing good at this time(1992) and he still isn't doing anything good for us. The poor is getting poorer and the rich is still rich. We cant work because our brains are dieying with out food. This book is a wonderful but the tragic moments are very sad and disapointing. I dont think that anyone should have more power oer us no matter what. We should be exempt and work for our families in different countries. I will fight for the people in my community and it will be anarchy. I will beat the system and nobody will stop me!

Twilight : Los Angeles, 1992
This play offers the viewer a chance to reflect on recent history in California. It is an intelligent look at the discussion of race in America. Any chance for thoughtful self-evaluation is an opportunity to grow and learn. Anna Deavere Smith's work is grand.
