Barbara Ransby will talk about Ella Baker, the subject of her engaging biography.

A quick heads up about an exciting event tomorrow morning hosted by the Chicago Freedom School tomorrow at the Jane Addams Hull House.  Award-winning author Barbara Ransby will talk about her terrific biography of legendary and uncompromising activist Ella Baker.

I’ll write more about the biography soon, and, for a little extra fun to heighten your anticipation for the event, check out this YouTube clip of Sweet Honey in the Rock’s Ella’s Song.

Should be fun!
