Kerry James Marshall

Not map-related but my e-mail is failing me at the moment. I wanted to let you know about a lecture Thursday night by Kerry James Marshall at Freed Auditorium in Glassell.

Kerry James Marshall is both accomplished and extremely clear and straightforward communicating about his work.

Here's a link to an audio clip of an excellent conversation with him by the Bad at Sports crew!
