University Roundtable: Hidden Voices: African-American Writers in Wisconsin  (back)
 
Description:
African-American literary giants Jean Toomer, Lorraine Hansberry and Sarah Webster Fabio lived and wrote in Madison. Two attended, and one worked at, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, but they are largely unknown. An Outreach Specialist in the School of Medicine and Public Health, Poet Fabu Carter will provide an overview of their lives here and their contributions to literature in Wisconsin. This talk is based on a series of presentations in 2017 by UW Alumni and writers Poet Fabu, Sherry Lucille and Catrina Sparkman.
