Hi, I’ve been subscribing for a couple months now but I’ve been going from episode 1 so I’m only at ep 56 right now. Great work. I’m writing because I happened to notice your most recent topic. My father happens to be one of the nation’s foremost experts on the Harlem Renaissance. Here is a link to his works on Amazon–you can see how much he has written about it: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/105-9928897-1321216?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=cary+wintz
Anyway, it would be nice if you would add his most recent book to your links list: http://www.amazon.com/Harlem-Speaks-Living-History-Ranaissance/dp/1402204361/ref=sr_1_17?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1195974930&sr=8-17
Thanks,
