- Filmed October 2, 2012. Atlanta-based novelist and playwright Pearl Cleage joins writer Alice Walker for a conversation that focuses on their creative influences, the writers they read, and how they've been inspired by each other's work. The conversation, hosted by Rosemary Magee, is moderated by University of Georgia journalism professor and author Valerie Boyd.
OMG! Alice Walker and Pearl Cleage in the same room ... WOW! Two fabulous women. I'd love to meet them both.
Two fabulous women! Two pearls of our feminist sisterhood - we in Europe live with some of your wisdom! and think of you on the airports, as well!
Alice Walker is my heroine! She inspired me so much. If it wasn't for reading The Color Purple I wouldn't have the drive I have today. It was such a coincidence that she read the letter that would be the start of my own novel. I never known who the late, great Bessie Smith was and now the woman is one of my favorite historical figures.
Good luck on your novel! I hope it is still going well
@@bbcb1856 Thank you!!! It is! Just taking it day by day. And i hope all is well with you!

Love that, Ms. Alice!
Wonderful, wonderful.
I came upon this after viewing the Pearl Cleage's AARP interview. I shared it via Facebook.
