Adolph Reed On Being Named "Adolph"

 

Dr. Adolph Reed, professor emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania, political scientist, and editor of Nonsite (https://nonsite.org/​), talks about why he was named Adolph. Katie shares the even more "problematic" last name of an ex-boyfriend. Reed is the author of "Class Notes: Posing As Politics and Other Thoughts on the American Scene," "W. E. B. Du Bois and American Political Thought: Fabianism and the Color Line," "The Jesse Jackson Phenomenon: The Crisis of Purpose in Afro-American Politics," "Stirrings in the Jug: Black Politics in the Post-Segregation Era."***Please support The Katie Halper Show *** On Patreon https://www.patreon.com/thekatiehalpe...
