博士. 迈克尔·埃里克·戴森

博士. 迈克尔·埃里克·戴森, named by Essence magazine as one of the 40 most inspiring African- Americans – and by Ebony magazine as one of the 100 most influential black Americans – is one of the nation’s most renowned public intellectuals. The Philadelphia Weekly contends that Dyson “is reshaping what it means to be a public intellectual by becoming the most visible black academic of his time.” When one hears Dyson’s name, one thinks of the many hats he wears: prolific author, 学者, public intellectual, ordained minister, media commentator and talk radio show host. In his books, Dyson has taken on some of the toughest and most controversial issues of our day, including Martin Luther King, Jr.’s radical legacy, in I May Not Get There With You: The True Martin Luther King, 小; the virtues and crises of hip-hop culture in Holler If You Hear Me: Searching for Tupac Shakur; racial conflict and black identity in Race Rules: Navigating the Color Line; and more recently the political and racial fallout from Hurricane Katrina in Come Hell or High Water: 卡特里娜飓风 和 Color of Disaster and Debating Race, a collection of his previously unpublished intellectual encounters–cordial and combative–with some of today’s most influential thinkers and politicians.
