Introduction -- The black matriarch's quest for love: Oprah Winfrey as Sofia in The color purple / Tara T. Green -- Oprah Winfrey and the trauma drama: "What's so good about feeling bad?" / Ricardo Guthrie -- Creating a legacy of disconnection: colorism and classism in Oprah Winfrey presents: The Wedding / Preselfannie Evet Whitfield McDaniels -- Wanderlust, hysteria, and insurrection: (re)presenting the "Beloved" sweet home men / Robert Randolph -- "Let the music play": music, meaning, and method in Oprah Winfrey presents: Their eyes were watching God / Neal Lester -- Blues, hope, and disturbing images: a comparison of Sapphire's Push and the film Precious / Wendy Rountree.

Oprah Winfrey has long promoted black issues by being involved as a producer or actor in the adaptation of works by African American writers for film. These include "The Color Purple", "Native Son", "The Women of Brewster Place", "Beloved", "The Wedding", "Their Eyes Were Watching God", and "Precious". This volume evaluates Winfrey's involvement in the visual interpretation of African American literary texts. The contributors use film, music, black masculinity, black feminist, and cultural studies to examine the role she has played as actress, and in some cases, producer, of films that interpret works published by African American writers between 1937 and 1996.
