My Father's Name - Trailer

Lawrence P. Jackson, Professor of English and African American Studies at Emory, talks about his new book, "My Father's Name: A Black Virginia Family after the Civil War" (University of Chicago Press, available May 2012). The book, part detective story and part historical memoir, tells the story of his quest to learn more about his ancestral past, one tied to the history of slavery. His most recent book, "The Indignant Generation: A Narrative History of African American Writers and Critics, 1934-1960" received the American Publishers Awards for Professional and Scholarly Excellence in literature; a literary award from the Black Caucus of the American Library Association in the nonfiction category; and an award from the Modern Language Association of America. http://aas.emory.edu/ljackson.html
