Author Daniel Black Discusses The Coming with FYE Students

In case you missed it: Catch a glimpse of Black’s visit to campus.

Author Daniel Black visited SUNY OW  to discuss his novel The Coming as part of the First-Year Experience’s (FYE) Common Reading Program during Panther Pride Homecoming Week.  Dr. Black is a professor of African-American Studies at Clark Atlanta University and the author of two other novels:  They Tell Me of a Home and The Sacred Place.

The Coming “tells the story of a people’s capture and sojourn from their homeland across the Middle Passage–a traumatic trip that exposed the strength and resolve of the African spirit.”

Dr. Black led a speech and book signing for first-year students in the Clark Athletic Center on October 10th. Several students were selected to eat dinner with the author.
