The Power of Indignation: Richard Wright, Black American Novelist

Richard Wright (1908-1960), the author of the novel Native Son (1940) and the autobiography Black Boy (1945), pioneered an influential school of protest literature, becoming the first Black writer to pen a bestseller that overtly criticized racism and white supremacy.

Darryl Lorenzo Wellington, in character as Wright, will recreate the authors’  life and times, including his final days, and then take questions.
