SATURDAY, AUGUST 22nd @ 4PM VIA FACEBOOK LIVE: BLACK EXCELLENCE BOOK CLUB: FIRE!! THE ZORA NEALE HURSTON STORY WRITTEN & DRAWN BY PETER BAGGE:
Hurston challenged the norms of what was expected of an African American woman in early 20th century society. The fifth of eight kids from a Baptist family in Alabama, Hurston's writing prowess blossomed at Howard University, and then Barnard College, where she was the sole black student. She arrived in NYC at the height of the Harlem Renaissance and quickly found herself surrounded by peers such as Langston Hughes and Wallace Thurman.
