Alice Walker Interview

Below is a lovely interview of Alice Walker, author of The Color Purple. She talks about love and politics and society and how these create complexities within the writer's life.

A note: She is being interviewed after watching a documentary of her life, which I also highly recommend and can be found on PBS' website.

This year's WOW Festival included the world exclusive premiere of 'Alice Walker: Beauty In Truth', a feature documentary film directed by Pratibha Parmar about the life and art of the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of 'The Color Purple'. After the screening, Mariella Frostrup chaired a Q&A discussion with Alice Walker and Pratibha Parmar.
