The Bob Edwards Show, Peniel Joseph and Jamal Joseph, February 4, 2015

We’ll mark Black History Month all February, starting with Bob’s conversation with Peniel Joseph. He wrote about such militant civil rights figures as Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael in his 2006 book Waiting 'Til the Midnight Hour: A Narrative History of Black Power in America.

Then, Bob talks with Jamal Joseph. In Panther Baby: A Life of Rebellion & Reinvention, Joseph vividly recounts his introduction to Panther life, and his progression from a young, naïve street kid to a confident and outspoken member of an influential national movement, and later to an Oscar nominee and professor at an Ivy League college.
