Today’s conversation is with Brian Kwoba, who teaches in the Department of History at University of Memphis where he is also the director of African American Studies. Along with a number of scholarly articles, Brian is the author of the new book Hubert Harrison: Forbidden Genius of Black Radicalism, out in 2025 with University of North Carolina Press. In this conversation, we discuss the role of Black Studies sensibilities in the writing of history and the importance of the long story of Black radicalism for the study of Black life.
