Rediscovering Black History in Color
The African American experience is taught in many forms from songs to films to performance, but one of the latest forms to grow in popularity is the graphic novel. We’ll talk with author Joel Christian Gill about his newest work, Strange Fruit: Uncelebrated Narratives From Black History. And on the eve of the 50th anniversary of the death of Malcolm X, we look at the last years of his life.
