Randal Jelks with My America: Langston Hughes on Democracy

We are pleased to bring award-winning author and documentary producer Randal M. Jelks to Montgomery for a book talk co-sponsored by the Rosa Parks Museum. In My America: Langston Hughes and Democracy, Jelks delivers a revelatory portrait of the
celebrated poet, essayist, playwright, and American artist. His new book curates a compelling narrative of Hughes as an activist, advocate, and champion of justice through his poetry. Come join us for this very special program. Additional co-sponsors: League of Women Voters, Read Freely Alabama.
