Mr. Dodson discusses his book Jubilee: The Emergence of African-American Culture, published by National Geographic Society. The book traces origins of the unique African-American identity, with its distinctive cultural, political, and social systems. Though recently published, it was originally designed to complement the Schomburg Center’s 75th anniversary celebration exhibit, “Lest We Forget: The Triumph Over Slavery.” The book contains more than 200 photographs and illustrations from the Center’s collection of more than five million works. Included are essays from many black scholars, such as Gail Buckley and Annette Gordon-Reed, who joined this discussion. The panelists responded to questions from members of the audience.
