Marion Thompson Wright Lecture Series (1307)

Historians contend that Marion Thompson Wright laid the foundation for the study of African Americans in New Jersey. We talk about who she was, and how and why the lecture series was named after her. We also look back at the 20th annual series and its topic of Time and the African Diaspora with one of the featured speakers.
