In the Lion's Mouth: Black Populism in the New South, 1886-1900, with Dr. Omar Ali
Tuesday, June 21, 2011, 7 p.m.

Omar H. Ali is Associate Professor of African American and Diaspora Studies at the University of North Carolina, Greensboro. A graduate of the London School of Economics, he received his Ph.D. in History from Columbia University under the supervision of Eric Foner. Ali is the author of In the Balance of Power, named "a landmark work" by The National Political Science Review. He is a board member of IndependentVoting.org--a national association of independent voters--and has appeared on CNN and NPR discussing the rise of political independents in the United States.
Check out Dr. Ali's interview from this morning on WBAI's Wake Up June 20th -- the 15 minute interview comes about 9 minutes, 30 seconds into the program, just after the "this day in history" note about Muhammad Ali being stripped of his heavy weight title for refusing to serve in Vietnam. Ahh... the meeting of the Ali's!
