Up From History
This week at Book Club, we have Robert J. Norrell, history professor at the University of Tennessee, discussing his work Up From History: The Life of Booker T. Washington. The book is the first full-length biography of Booker T. Washington in some time and re-examines the life and controversial strategies of this leader of the African-American community. Among the topics given renewed attention are the huge influence Washington wielded in the black community and larger American society and the precarious position he occupied between white supremacists on one side and competing black leaders on the other.
Joining him are Joe Lowndes, political science professor at the University of Oregon; Jane Shaw, President of the Pope Center for Higher Education Policy; Ralph Luker, history teacher and author on race and on religion; and Bruce Kleinschmidt, attorney and librarian. Join us!
