Hello everybody and welcome back to RevLeftRadio.

On today's episode we have the continuation of our ongoing series on WEB Du Bois and his

work covering different texts that he wrote, different elements of his biography, learning

what we can as we stand today from his life and his legacy and his works and so this is

the second installment with the one and only Dr. Sherice Burton Steley, aka Dr. CBS.

She is finally on RevLeft, it's been a long time coming, I've talked to her before on

Grilla history, I've communicated with her on Twitter and we have always been wanting

to do an episode together and then once PM and I decided to do this series I knew I had

to reach out to her and bring her on because she along with Gerald Horn and others is a really

well-known and well-respected scholar that focuses among other things on Du Bois' work.

But this is the second installment, maybe some people did not catch the first, there's

no necessary order, you need to listen to these episodes in, each episode can stand on

their own as a one-off listen for those that want to approach it in that way.

But throughout this series I do have my co-host PM Irvin on to help me as somebody who

I think has a deeper well of knowledge on Du Bois who's actively studying Du Bois and

his work, I wanted somebody else on to help bolster this series to make it as good as

it could possibly be and PM was that person.

So for those that haven't been acquainted with you from our first episode with Gerald Horn

PM, can you kind of reintroduce yourself and then take us into the interview?

Yeah, thanks so much, Brad, it's as always an honor to be included, I'm a one-time

listener of the show and I think the fact that we're doing a series on Du Bois' philosophy

and political thought is really crucial.
