John Hope Franklin Legacies Series | Tony Phillips, Mark Anthony Neal, and John Gartrell

Since 2015, the Franklin Humanities Institute has sponsored an event series in honor of our namesake, Dr. John Hope Franklin. We take seriously Dr. Franklin's demand to attend to both the untold stories and the familiar ones - “intellectualizing them,” as he put it - and to place those stories in the context of the world.

This year, the FHI at Duke invited celebrated radio consultant, editor, executive producer, Tony Phillips, Ph.D., to speak about the time he spent with Dr. Franklin when working on a project for the BBC. In this event, we feature a conversation between Tony Phillips, Mark Anthony Neal, and John Gartrell as part of our John Hope Franklin Legacies Series.

Mark Anthony Neal is the James B. Duke Distinguished Professor of African & African American Studies and Chair of the Department of African & African American Studies at Duke University. He is also host and creator of the Webby-nominated web series, Left of Black.

John B. Gartrell is the Director of the John Hope Franklin Research Center for African and African American History and Culture of the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Duke University
