Radical Conversation: Making America Great – Hettie Jones: The History of Greatness

This presentation will delve into today’s fractured politics with respect to what has come before. Hettie Jones provides a unique perspective, as a onetime publisher of Yugen magazine—a groundbreaking journal of radical literature, which ran for eight issues from 1958 to 1962 and created a body of literature for children of color when there was none—and as a former chair of the PEN Prison Writing Program.

This program is the second in ICP’s series “Radical Conversation: Making America Great,” which explores the current political crisis and the nature of personal responsibility and action in this moment.
