Brown Bag Biography with Lurana Donnels O'Malley

November 20, 12:00pm - 1:15pm
Mānoa Campus, Kuykendall 410

---

In her most recent book, O’Malley explores how Black activists Mary Church Terrell and W. E. B. Du Bois seized the opportunity of the 1932 Bicentennial celebration of George Washington’s birthday to place Black people at center stage and to revise contemporary views of Washington and of Black achievement. O’Malley will chronicle her scholarly journey from discovering Mary Church Terrell’s Phillis Wheatley play, to creating a monograph analyzing the work within the context of the Bicentennial, to editing the first-ever published version of Terrell’s script. The session will include readings from the play.
