“HUBERT HARRISON: THE VOICE OF HARLEM RADICALISM” -- VIDEO ON TV AND ONLINE TONIGHT, Tuesday March 11, 2014, at 8:30 PM (EDT) on BNN TV IN BOSTON. This is the last live showing of the video on BNN TV so PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD TO OTHERS WHO MIGHT BE INTERESTED!!! A video of a slide presentation/talk on “Hubert Harrison: The Voice of Harlem Radicalism” will be aired tonight, Tuesday, March 11, 2014, at 8:30 pm (EDT) on Boston Neighborhood News TV’s “Around Town” -- Channel: Comcast 9 / RCN 15 and will simultaneously be available live on the internet at that time at https://bnntv.org/tune-in/news-info or: bnntv.org/tune-in/shows. The video consists of 46 minutes of a slide presentation/talk by Jeffrey B. Perry at the Dudley Public Library in Roxbury, Massachusetts on February 15, 2014, followed by several minutes of questions and answers. This event was hosted by Mimi Jones and sponsored by Friends of the Dudley Library, the Alliance for a Secular and Democratic South Asia, and Massachusetts Global Action. Contact people included Mirna Lascano, Umang Kumar, Paul Malachi Penchalapadu, and Charlie Welch in addition to Mimi Jones. The video was prepared and edited by Justin D. Shannahan, Production Manager, Ted Lewis, cameraman, and Laura Kerivan, copy editor for Boston Neighborhood Network Television. Nia Grace, Marketing and Promotions Manager of BNNTV, coordinated efforts to make the video available. Note: The Presentation and Question and Answer period lasted over 2 hours. The TV station edited it down to a video of this length. The crowd was remarkable since the event was at the highpoint of the big snowstorm, the governor was telling people to stay off the roads, and the public library closed early (only leaving a door open to the auditorium where this event was held). Those who made it to and stayed through the event were determined and this was manifested in their interest during the presentation, the lengthy Q and A period, and much informal discussion that went on into the evening.

Ray Richardson and his fiancé, Vashti Lowns, died under “suspicious” circumstances in Mexico in January of 1971 -- see blackagendareport/content/radicalization-ray-richardson-suspicion-still-surrounds-death-black-activist-tv-producer — with Hubert Harrison.
