New Day Jazz
Justin Desmangles
This week, on New Day Jazz, we are joined by Clarence Lusane, to discuss his most recent book, The Black History of the White House.
"Black folks built the White House in more ways than one. In this beautifully rendered narrative, Clarence Lusane recasts the whole of American history by revealing how slavery and emancipation, racial violence and civil rights, the black freedom movement and white supremacy, and dozens of unsung black heroes shaped the U.S. presidency and federal government in profound ways. Anyone who cares about this country and is not afraid of the truth must read this book, including President Obama. It can help him get his house in order." - Robin D. G. KelleyGenre
