I gave a lecture on Langston Hughes at Marymount University yesterday. I'm scheduled to do 5 talks on the campus this year. The next one will be on the Black Arts Movement, November 1st.


I have four more weeks teaching my memoir class at the University of Houston/Victoria. I think it has gone well. Very positive feedback from the students.


I need to get ready for doing a new season of The Scholars (UDC-TV). It starts next week with an interview with Vera Katz.
