Today is Part 2 of a four-part Black History special presentation on Hubert Henry Harrison, the "Father of Harlem Radicalism."
The presentation continues on Thursday and Friday.
Yesterday, Jeff Perry chronicled the trajectory of Harrison's early life -- from
his birth into poverty in St. Croix, to the beginnings of his intellectual and radical consciousness, and his public exposure of America's internal contradictions of race and class.
Today, Perry takes us deeper into Harrison's stunning intellect and fearless activism.
Perry is the author of a just-released, two-book compendium (Columbia University Press, 1,588 pages combined) on Harrison.
