On this week’s In Black America, producer and host John L. Hanson, Jr. presents a tribute to the late John Hope Franklin, a noted scholar of African American history, whose career of more than 60 years in scholarship, teaching and advocacy included a distinguished professorship at Duke University, helping prepare the landmark Supreme Court case for Brown v. Board of Education, and marching with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in Montgomery, Alabama. Franklin died in March, 2009.
