"Robert Alexander has penned a powerful, multifaceted portrait of one of the more complex figures of our time, Huey P. Newton...piecing together a rich, moving, cautionary tale that reminds one as much of Citizen Kane as of Mario Van Peebles' sensationalistic and highly fictionalized Panther...expressionistic techniques straight out of Brecht...power, ambition, and epic sweep."
Jack Helbig, NewCity Chicago
"Servant of the People draws much of its potent energy from the clear links that playwright Robert Alexander makes between the disillusioning decline of the organization's socialist ideals and the apolitical nihilism and violence that continues to plague black communities across the country... The tale has all the power and elements of ancient Greek tragedy... The fact that the events are based in truth only strengthens their impact."
Bryan Upton, Windy City Times (Chicago)
"Fine, fiercely focused scenes... For sheer newness and nerve, Servant demands attention."
Dan Hulbert, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
