August Wilson’s play Fences was written in 1983. Fences is the sixth play in Wilson’s Pittsburgh cycle. Pittsburgh is important because it represents a better life for blacks; it provides them with jobs and helped them to escape the poverty and racism of the south after the civil war.

Woodrow Wilson was a highly educated president and in his precedency era he accomplished social and economic reforms including the Federal Reserve Act, the Child Labor Reform Act and finally ratifying the 19th amendment, giving all women the right to vote but also making Wilson the last president of the United States of the Progressive Era.
