at 1:00 pm Central on November 15th.

Joining to help facilitate the post-forum discussion will be Dr. Stephen Haynes, Professor of Religious Studies at Rhodes College and author of The Last Segregated Hour, and R3 editor Dr. Andre Johnson, the Dr. James L. Netters Associate Professor of Rhetoric & Religion and African American Studies at Memphis Theological Seminary and author of the The Forgotten Prophet: Bishop Henry McNeal Turner and the African American Prophetic Tradition.
