Dr. Jeffrey B. Perry's Bio of Hubert Harrison: The Struggle for Equality

Within two weeks we'll be completing Black History Month, but for my fellow-US Virgin Islanders we'll be initiating Virgin Islands History Month. And to kick off our celebration and education of a founding father, Professor Dr. Jeffrey B. Perry will be serving as our guest educating and enlightening us about Mr. Hubert Harrison, a native son from St. Croix, US Virgin Islands.

“The two-volume biography of Hubert Harrison is extremely important,” states Dr. Perry who believes this two-volume biography is the first, full-life, multi-volume biography of an Afro-Caribbean and the fourth of an African American after those of Booker T. Washington, W. E. B. Du Bois, and Langston Hughes.”
