On this week of BlackLantic, we sit down (in person) with the literary legend George Elliott Clarke who recently edited the autobiography of his mentor and father-figure, Black Activist, Black Scientist, Black Icon - The Story of Dr. Howard D. McCurdy. The story shares the life, triumph and struggles of a Black man who is not only extremely educated, named the New Democratic Party in Canada, accomplished an astonishing amount, yet never received the accolades deserved for his contributions to Canada until much later in life. Reading the book in 2024, you see McCurdy fight for the same political issues we are fighting today. Thank you to Nimbus Publishing for facilitating the conversation, and the Halifax Public Library for hosting us.
