PBS: Richard Wright: Black Boy
http://www.pbs.org/rwbb/
To accompany its video documentary on Richard Wright, PBS has provided this teacher's guide which "contains a wealth of information." Particularly useful for teachers are "ideas for assignments and questions," along with pre- and post-viewing activities. Also included is a "chronology of important dates in Wright's life," and a good bibliography of "works by and about Wright."
Overall Rating: 3

City Honors Richard Wright Page
http://cityhonors.buffalo.k12.ny.us/city/reference/English/auth/wri.htm
This site is a curious melange of works which mention Richard Wright, including "an undergraduate thesis comparing African-American females in novels by Wright and Zora Neale Hurston;" summaries of "critical responses to Native Son and Black Boy;" and "an excerpt from the book, The City in African-American Literature."
