GREAT CLASS!!!
I'm a student at Howard and because I'm a musical theatre student, I have a lot of books that I don't get a lot of time to read. I stumbled across this class and downloaded the first episode and the one on Paul Robeson. After watching the first episode last night, I immediately downloaded 3 more episodes. The teacher is engaging and very passionate about his subject, and the material is thought-provoking and makes me want to do more research. Can't wait to watch the next episodes!!!
