We're breaking from our usual format this time. This is the first part of a two part series on the life and work of David C. Driskell. Driskell has done so much that there was no way I could feel comfortable cramming it into a single episode. 

Excerpt:

His student, Mary O’Neal, who later became a distinguished fine artist, but was only then a student and the girlfriend of Stokely Carmichael, told Driskell that he was teaching the course in cultural disguise – meaning it was not just art history but a very passionate kind of civil rights art course. She called it an action course. It focused on topics of where one had to prove that he or she had something to give in society and in art.
