Celebrating this Giant of Black History - Hubert H. Harrison, who was born in 1883 and died in 1927, is one of the truly important figures of twentieth-century history . A brilliant writer , orator, educator, critic, and political activist, he was described by the historian Joel A. Rogers , in World’s Great Men of Color as “the foremost Afro-American intellect of his time.” This extraordinary praise came amid chapters on Booker T. Washington, W. E. B. Du Bois, William Monroe Trotter, and Marcus Garvey.
